Presented a session on accessible communications this morning to the heads of diversity and inclusion across government. Happy #GAAD
It’s international guide dog day. Shout out to all civil servants who are lucky enough to have a furry set of eyes. A guide dog is not for everyone though, (alternative navigation aids available). regardless which one you use, let’s use the opportunity to celebrate VI colleagues.
Wed just like to say happy International Day for People With Disability @IDPwD . Let us know what you're doing to celebrate your successes.

Thanks so much for sharing these experiences Rupert and for your continuing support. Also, a big thank you as always to @CSDisability @CSDisabilityNet
The move to remote working has had both positive and negative impacts on our disabled colleagues, and if we’re to improve our inclusivity, it’s important to know why. Simon Skerritt and Sue Reeves have kindly shared their experiences in the below:
