Today marks the first day of #DisabilityHistoryMonth, an opportunity to learn from our past and deliver a better future for disabled people.
ALT An infographic with a picture of Vicky Foxcroft MP on the right-hand side and the following quote on the left-hand side: During disability history month, we celebrate pioneers of our movement who fought for huge wins, including the Disability Discrimination Act and the Equality Act. Covid -19 has sadly set us back and brought to the forefront the stark inequalities that still exist. We must learn from the past and deliver a better future for all disabled people.

To start #AntiBullyingWeek, we want to remind you that being bullied is never your fault. Under any circumstances. We know it can make you feel isolated, angry and lower your confidence. But we hope you are kind to yourself - and realise how important you are.
