Thanks for staying with me.
We can’t talk about access, without looking at the things that prevent it, blocks and barriers.
Ask any disabled person, I expect you will find that they have come against blocks/barriers in their life.
Some places try to improve this and will consult with learning disabled on how things can be done better. I see a few companies putting in positive employment schemes to help disabled workers join or advance. That’s brilliant help.
Let’s talk about how we manage through barriers without the help there.
It’s important that we speak out and explain the issues that we have. After all, if we can’t explain the problem or barrier, how can others help us through it?
I challenge you to think about the blocks and barriers in front of you. Write them down, list the areas and explain how you would like others to help you through.
