Exciting weeks ahead as we push forward with Zach’s Right to Ride! This fight is for every disabled person’s right to access, dignity & freedom in all areas of life. We’re one step closer each day ❤️

Did you know? Many public transport routes still lack step-free access, making everyday travel nearly impossible for thousands of disabled people. Accessibility isn’t a luxury – it’s a right. Public transport must work for EVERYONE.

Enjoy your weekend, everyone! The sun’s out now, but rain’s back this weekend. Sending extra love to all wheelchair users who already face tough weather challenges — stay safe & stay strong. 💛☔♿ #ZachsRightToRide
On days like today, we’re reminded why accessibility matters even more in bad weather. For many disabled people, blocked ramps and inaccessible transit can turn a tough trip into an impossible one. Accessibility must work year-round. #zachsrighttoride#inanyweather
