Great final outing @Oxonlibraries on Saturday as our Hidden Stories Tour comes to an end. We've given away almost 8,000 copies over the last 6 weeks, telling the hidden stories of invisible disability so that others feel they can do the same. #HiddenStories #RewriteNormal
We're excited about this Saturday, @Oxonlibraries! Come and pick up your free copy of #HiddenStories and help us to #RewriteNormal

so glad that you like them @BrightonYCP. We hope that they carry on being useful and thank you for all the important work that you do
Thank you so much @rootexperience for our copies of Hidden Stories. They are brilliant, beautiful books and we will be using them with our carers. Many of our #youngcarers look after family members with invisible disabilities.
