Inclusion Scotland supports the Hate Crime Bill because insults and ridicule faced by disabled people daily impacts on our health, wellbeing and human rights. We should be able to participate in society and go about our daily life without fear. Briefing at bit.ly/3rvNXfo

The Covid-19 crisis hit hard, hit quickly and hit disabled people most of all. We lost vital social care support. Were left bedridden. Left to struggle to get food and medicine. Left with fears about involuntary do not resuscitate notices. We need change. inclusionscotland.org/manife…

What is accessibility? Accessible products and services are designed and built so that disabled people can use them. They also tend to be more usable by everyone. Read W3C’s Intro to Accessibility: w3.org/WAI/fundamentals/acce… #AccessiblePublicSector #AccessibleDigitalScotland
