Happy to announce this new issue I edited with colleagues on disability and lessons from the pandemic. There are some really great contributions from different parts of the world here. All open access.
Hot off the press! We have just released an #openaccess issue that explores social inclusion and isolation of disabled people during the #pandemic. What are the main findings? (🧵) #disabilityinclusion #disability #covid19 @owenbarden @ErinPritchard15 @anabeonline

This whole thread is terrifying but this is what it feels to be disabled...
CN: DWP I've talked about this before, but as this ad is activating trauma, I want to explain what disabled people live with. More than 15 years ago (yes, before the Tories), all my benefits suddenly stopped. When I called to ask why I was put through to the fraud office. 1/

While my colleagues are on strike again today and tomorrow, I'm not as I can't withdraw my labour. I am still on sick leave treating the cancer I discovered on time, only because I was able to find time to go to the doctor last year during the #ucustrikes. #solidarity @DrJoGrady

Today, on Holocaust Memorial Day, we remember the 250,000+ disabled people who were killed during the Nazi secret plan called the 'T4 Program'. We must remember those people and stand against prejudice and hatred. #HolocaustMemorialDay #HMD2023 #LightTheDarkness
