For anyone who are not familiar with us from our Instagram page, The Disability Collective, Andrey & I are two friends with a hearing loss. We’re passionate about advocating for disabilities. Lets keep the conversation going on disability and accessibility! #disability

Happy Monday everyone! If you haven’t already seen our posts from International Day of Persons with Disabilities on our Instagram [TheDisabilityCollective] - please take a look & give us your thoughts ☺️✨ #accessibility#disability#awareness#inclusive#deaf
@ellispalmer94 Of course! You’ll find though especially during work Christmas dos and parties, it’s out of your control where they book. Mine is next week at a noisy place, I had no say so I do rely on lip reading where possible & on my friends 🙈
If you have a #friend who is #hardofhearing, please check in with them to see if they’re following the conversation or need something repeating! It’s the little things that can help in these situations. #deaf#accessibility#christmas

We are headed to @Rambertdance and @artsadm over the next week. Drop us a line to find out more about our training sessions, It might just be free! https://t.co/na1bMGMtJF
It was great to have Gu from @signlync feature in our videos this week dedicated to celebrating International Day of Persons with Disabilities! Have you seen her story yet on our Instagram? #IDPWD#IDPD#thedisabilitycollective
74% of disabled people said having a strong network of friends was helpful to being able to live independently.
Great to see @Skype being #DisabilityGamechangers with this latest innovation to help keep people connected. https://t.co/Kvfk5fO0py
