I’m delighted to announce that I shall be running once again for the Disabled Members’ Seat on our NEU Exec to represent all our disabled members right across the Union.

How quickly can a writer of fiction engage the reader? Just noted my fave @linwoodbarclay.bsky.social took six and a half lines. Just wonderful ✨💫

#DefendDuncan Workplace Rep and NEC member Duncan Blackie is being targeted by his employer and members at #LongleyPark have voted overwhelmingly for #strike action on 18th December. Share to show your support! @neunion.bsky.social

www.theguardian.com/business/202... Lush, Uniqlo, Urban Outfitters need to do better by their staff. Until then they should be avoided.

Solidarity with Duncan. ✊🏼

A wonderful visit to NEU Northern Ireland despite some dire weather promoting our superb Disability Equality Toolkit. Excellent group of folks with fab comments and questions. Top class discussion. Thank you to all for making us feel so welcome 🌸

A really emotional weekend. It’s clear to me that many non disabled people simply don’t understand disabled people’s issues & concerns. I understand different views on the Assisted Dying bill of course I do but if you can’t think beyond your personal reaction you need to think more deeply,seriously

So proud to be part of a TUC webinar today on Reasonable Adjustments for Disabled Workers with near 1000 people on the call! 🎉🎉🎉

This is one huge loss of teaching and support talent. Improving the profession for Disabled staff actually helps all educators. More flexibility and access is needed. Bring down the barriers.

We should show allyship with guide dog users to stop discrimination and harassment. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A great pleasure to attend the NEU London Disabled Members event today. A really worthwhile trip despite the poor weather. The solidarity of purpose in the room was impressive ☺️ Proud to be NEU 🌼🌸🌼

I signed so should you 🌸

Collectivising Disabled Workers concerns is vital. It’s a good time to point this out during Disability History Month. Together we are stronger fighting for our rights. @neudisabled.bsky.social

neu.org.uk/latest/libra... I’m really delighted with our NEU Disability Equality Toolkit. It keeps being added to all the while most recently a section on Access to Work. It’s a really useful resource. Proud to be NEU ✨💫
