For people with disability, access to intimacy, connection and sexual expression isn’t “extra”. It’s part of being human. If you believe everyone deserves dignity and autonomy, we’d love your support. Donate before June 30 to make a real difference for the rights of disabled people and sex workers

These days most of us have heard of taking a 'person-centred approach” (PCA). Did you know it started in the 1980’s with Prof Tom Kitwood proving that the dementia supports of the day were failing. He called it Malignant Social Psychology (MSP) and showed the culture harms them more than dementia.

Choice and control aren't just buzzwords or jargon, they are words to live by, for people with disability. Historically their choices have been made for them, and it's essential that disabled people make informed decisions holistically, without shying away from the ones that make people blush.

With your support we’re working to make it easier for disabled adults to express their sexuality and have an active sex life (if they choose), like the rest of the community. If you believe this is a right, not a luxury, please donate before June 30 2026 - all donations over $2 are tax deductible.

Connection looks different for everyone, and that's OK... Connection can include all kinds of relationships. Intimate relationships are often about touch, and as long as it's legal and consensual, you can dream of and seek out whatever kinds of connection and intimacy is your jam.

Disabled adults of all ages have sexual & physical intimacy needs: - Young adults - Married, de facto - Single, dating or celibate - Older, living in aged care Intimacy is part of an ordinary life - a part that most people don't think about until it's taken away. touchingbase.org
