Human Trafficking remains the fastest growing criminal industry in the world, but we know that many victims are undetected. The new National Referral Mechanism (NRM) must be properly implemented to make it easier to identify, and to support, victims. #WorldDayAgainstTrafficking

Totally unacceptable.

No you are NOT leaving late because of "the wheelchair", you are leaving late because the aviation industry continually fails disabled people and is not fit for purpose.

Following years of campaigning, First Minister of Scotland apologises for the ‘Tinker Experiments’. While this acknowledgement is important and welcome, it must be followed by concrete actions to address racism that Travellers face today. https://t.co/Vkz4zoaM2S

She begged him to stop, promised she would never speak to her family again, that they would never have to come to Mayo again

.@abrihouse was a central figure in the disability rights movement in Ireland. When I first started to engage with the movement, Jacqui took me under her wing. This was the case for many of us, and something we spoke about yesterday as we called and texted on her passing.

[Irish Human Rights & Equality Commission @_IHREC]

We wish to express our deep sadness today as we learned of the death of disability equality activist, Jacqui Browne .

We honour her extraordinary contribution to our Disability Advisory Committee and mourn the loss of a colleague, advisor, and friend.

A special message of gratitude to @GalwayHospice for taking such good care of my Uncle Pat right up until the end. We never truly get to appreciate you until we need you.
If ever I can help raise funds or awareness, I'm always just a message away.

Rest in peace Uncle Pat. ❤️
