We're a UK based initiative that aims to use the arts, creativity, discussion, and the human voice to redefine people who are deemed as different in society.
Check out our video where Charlotte, who has quadriplegic cerebral palsy, discusses why people with physical disabilities have the right to feel and be desirable too! https://t.co/FAhIt3yD32 #CerebralPalsy#bodypositive#DisabilityRights#Disability
@stevealmondjoy Hi I, recently watched the beautiful film adaptation of. which brings me to you. on Netflix. I am keen to read it on kindle but notice it is not yet available in the uk where I live. Will a kindle edition be available anytime soon? Thank you!
As we wrap up 2021, it's time for some financial transparency. We send love to all our fellow artists in the same position we are.
Thank you for taking the time to have a look. If you're in a position to donate, or 'share' it would mean the world.

https://t.co/UKoHPBmAOm #JournoCallout Desirably Different is an initiative which utilizes media and human discussion to talk about issues from mental health to body image and race to disability. I am doing a call out to see if any media would be interested in us working together
If we’re still gonna run headlines like:
“Her disability hasn’t held her back....”
can we follow it up with:
”...but ableism, discrimination and inaccessibility has.”
This month we're focusing on sex and disability on our social channels.
Normalising dialogue around topics that are seen as taboo is one of the most effective ways to tackle stigma. So let's get talking!
You have to laugh seeing all the non-disabled people complain about having to book a place at the pub. Imagine if they were forced to plan every night out to the letter, spend 20 minutes on the phone to a waiter, only to turn up and find they still can’t get in.
