An incredible 3 days at the #EuropeinAction2024 conference and attending @Enable_Tweets 70th Anniversary event. It was great to meet so many inspiring people and see the incredible work that everyone has to offer

Look forward to discussing this with you @InclusionEurope #EuropeInAction this week …. @Katie_ENABLE @misver @JamieACooke ….@Enable_Tweets …
I also suspect housing will become an increasingly hot topic for @EASPD_Brussels members too, incl. how to move away from institutional care when housing is so unaffordable.
We may need to start cooperating more with housing sector.

I'm in our @Enable_Tweets office in Glasgow this morning to see the All in Glasgow and East Dunbartonshire team take on the last day of their fundraiser!
They have walked & cycled the scenic route of 1000 miles between Lands End & John O’Groats.

This is important to all of us who work to serve others in supporting them into work.Not just “jobs” but careers with progression and great economic,social and health benefits/good work should be accessible to all @Ashley_Enable @vickyfoxcroft @Enable_Tweets @InclusionEurope
Our report for @MQmentalhealth suggests making ADIE treatment available to all autistic people with generalised anxiety disorder could lead to significant quality of life improvements, with equivalent economic benefits valued at up to £28,000 p.p.

Had a brilliant talk today with @GCUSHLS about Health and social care for folk with learning disabilities it was quite interesting also quite alarming to find out that learning disability awareness training isn’t part of their training it should be mandatory cause you never know – at Glasgow, Scotland
