@outwithed @latsot @Tanni_GT @broxtowebc @darlingtonbc My chair needed repairing at the end of last year, because of the crap pavements knackering the front axle. They couldn't get a part and I was effectively housebound for 3 months.
Decaying infrastructure impacts disabled people more acutely. We can't adapt or avoid the risks

Disabled twitter. Can anyone point me in the direction of an employment lawyer, specifically one who knows about disability?

@northernassist not such a good story, I look forward to hearing what your investigation comes up with regarding this. https://t.co/MviRVj7x3Z #TakingTheDis

Morning X'ers, how are we all doing? Did you see the northern lights over the weekend, I missed them sadly. Anyway after a few days poorly Im hopefully back to my public transport accessibility quest.

@belfastcc Do you really think this is acceptablem in 2024????

[Christine McClements @Chris_McClem]

So NO CHANGING PLACES TOILET at this £2.9 million community café, training & exhibition & good relations space.

Appalling 😡

This is your own analysis (in draft CPT policy) of what happens when CPTs are not provided - danger, indignity & possible exclusion.

@whatsthecraic1 They certainly could

@fruitychronic The wheelchair space is very very small on a lot of buses and only just accessible especially as you have to reverse into the space and face the back of the bus

[♿️TakingTheDis♿️ @TakingTheDis]

@fruitychronic Very rare at the moment, hopefully become more and more

[♿️TakingTheDis♿️ @TakingTheDis]

@QueerlyAutistic Absolutely agree Erin

[♿️TakingTheDis♿️ @TakingTheDis]

@Film2240 Its getting slightly better every 10 years or so, still very much an after thought in my opinion

[♿️TakingTheDis♿️ @TakingTheDis]

Do you think that UK buses should cater for more than one wheelchair user at a time?
