@TfL When is Colindale stating opening, specifically the new lift?

[AzuKo @azuko_org]

An evening discussing the importance of accessibility in design & engineering with our friends @ewbuk.

Powerful insights shared by @KamranMallick @DisRightsUK @MarshaRamroop @CitywireWealth @TheConferenceC

So much more needs to be done in London, UK & beyond, to ensure accessibility & inclusivity are not ‘second thoughts’ in the design of spaces, but guiding principles.

Hosted at our office @CMDNCollective - a @TfL meanwhile space!

@zarahsultana It was almost impossible to watch this, and I am so sorry you had to endure this white fragility.

Turns out you can interview Muslim women without sneering and interrupting them. Good to know.

[Saul Staniforth @SaulStaniforth]

Warsi: "the demonisation of migrants, Muslim communities, was very deliberate.. a policy that has been put forward by some sections of the media, politics"

Because she's not a socialist Ed Balls didn't sneer at her or constantly interrupt her while she was talking #GMB

Buying mobility equipment is costly, if your health conditions is changing it may only be useful for a short time. Anna is launching a service to recycle this equipment. A great idea. Vote for Anna in London Borough of BarNET Zero Challenge
