Happy International Wheelchair Day 🥰♿️ Today is a great day to take a look at your feed and count how many disabled people do you follow? According to @scopecharity there are 14.6 million disabled people in the UK. I can’t begin to tell you how much I’ve learnt from following other disabled people. How much I’ve learnt about my own condition, pain, how to advocate for healthcare, accessibility, and about other conditions and disabilities too. I’ve learnt so much about how people with the same conditions can be so different, how we all have different needs and there’s always more to learn! Here I’m with my NHS transit chair, it’s different to my electric chair and I use it on days where my condition fluctuates and I’d be more comfortable in it. This is why you’ll see disabled people some days use walking sticks, and others use walkers or wheelchairs. Mobility aids allow us to use what we need on our bad and not so bad days!🙌 Tag your favourite disabled creators below! 🥰❤️ #fatdisabledworthy #internationalwheelchairday #mobilityaid #chronicfatigue #myalgicencephalomyelitis #chronicpainawareness #ambulatorywheelchairusersexist #disabilityawareness (at Napoleons Casino & Restaurant, Sheffield) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpPqHDOIgff/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
