Calling a #GeneralElection is one of the biggest moves our country can make – deaf people deserve to have that information at the same time as everyone else. This is not good enough! (1/2)

“More subtitled screenings on a Saturday are a positive step for #NationalCinemaDay, as accessible films are often shown at unsociable times." says RNID Head of Inclusion @TeriDevine.

We still need better access from @ODEONCinemas, @cineworld, @vuecinemas and others. 📽️🎞️
