The Americans with Disabilities Act turns 30 today. #Disability advocates face new barriers, but we continue fighting #ableism. At ADA25, back before this pandemic, President @BarackObama & I discussed typed hugs vs real hugs. Here's the joyful video #ADA https://t.co/XqkMaHiJvb

Coming out of #lockdown if you have a #VisualImpairment - many people may have lost some of their #confidence and #independence but we want to help you to get it back! Top tip - think about a familiar place to start, such as round the block or to the local shop 👍
