What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world?

On the surface for me this seems like a simple question. But it’s actually quite complicticated when you remember that accessibility means different things for different people, and as such there is no one way that you could change the world to make it universally accessible to all.

Instead, I think the bigger change would come from a recognition that being different, particularly being disabled is not bad. That disability is something likely to happen to everyone at some point in their life. If you’re lucky it’s old age that disables you and nothing else.

We separate the aging of life from disability and that only furthers our lack of inclusion of disabled people.

If you spend time reading my rambles I don’t want you to feel sorry for me or be glad that you aren’t me or even to learn from me. I simply want you to recognise that I exist. And that a more accessible world in any and every way possible for it to be accessible benefits everyone.
