Text reads: Bexhill Artists' Workspace ART EXHIBITION, open 10am to 5pm on 24th, 25th and 26th May 2025 in the Studio (in west side) De La Warr Pavilion, Bexhill-on-Sea TN40 1DP, UK.

You/Others think that would be erm 'better'?! Hm. I instinctively did repeated self-exposure using vid of 'Lost'=op theatre lights scene & 'KillBill'2? coffin scene, trying to regain power that was removed when I couldn't move to save myself & medics next to me too stupid to know
Financial costs matter not a hoot: Human Rights are fundamental & are for everyone [except boys in Male Genital Mutilation = targeted for exclusion from these] so it's unnecessary & bad to use a costs argument: detracts from the basics - I know you mean well though!
Please come & visit Bexhill Artists' Workspace Art Exhibition open 10am to 5pm Saturday 24th & Sunday 25th & Bank Holiday Monday 26th May 2025 in the Studio at De La Warr Pavilion in Bexhill-on-Sea, UK. Wheelchair accessible. Lots of artists' work & cards are for sale.

It doesn't say wheelchair accessible but DLWP's site says it is!
Anyway there are loads of people diagnosed as having a #BrainInjury [& many as yet undiagnosed or fobbed-off with 'mental health' labels] but each is unique: depends which part/s of brain are injured what effects this has; incl mobility, cognition, vision, sensation, memory...

@SkyUK got an email a couple of months ago saying they were almost doubling the price of our broadband, Called last week, spoke to a nice bloke who discounted it and the tv packages, we’re now paying £25 less a month for the whole package than we have been for the last 2 years!
Can't believe some people STILL behave like this! Young people [& all of us but they are often overcome by their hormones!] can say things without really thinking & may regret it after but often too late to undo/apologise.
More importantly: the #NHS must make a massive effort to stop harming patients=I read at least 1 in 10 of us will be harmed at every healthcare event; I'm a survivor of catastrophic injures caused by dangerous incompetent medics who'd been wrongly passed as safe & fit to practise
In other words: I don't believe regulators incl BPS actually protect patients & prevent those registered with them as 'professionals' from harming us at all so I would be wary of any promises made by BPS... Unless they've changed & improved LOADS...
And only ONE financial question: how much income do you get? Do NOT ask about any other adults' incomes = everyone must be treated equally & separately = no forced support from partners etc; savings should not be counted: we're told to save for emergencies & for old age & so on.
When I lived in S.France I got most of my fruit, salad stuff & veg from local market = top quality & cheap. Don't know hopw they do it = sell loads? The people who sell the stuff work massively hard & start before day-break often & out in all weathers = hats off & thanks to them.
Can't believe this is real or legal anywhere! Nobody can say MGM/circumcision doesn't leave scars = Big Fat Lie.
I'm sad you have misunderstood what I wrote: I have NEVER 'invalidated' anyone's disability, as I thought I'd made clear: I think it must affect us DIFFERENTLY(& more difficult to adapt later)depending on what age we became or were made to be disabled, is that a bad thing to say?
I can't believe that (same as GMC apparently) those who are meant to be regulated for #PatientSafety FUND the Regulator=IF true it's such a clear & massive conflict of interests. Do airlines fund the aviation investigator/regulator(via fees paid within passenger tickets)I wonder?
Hmm: #NHS hospitals have printed-out patient details onto a sheet of stickers for a very long time - is that only when a patient's been admitted?
I think the whole Charity thing needs a very big shake-up; I read that religious groups/bodies can be charities = true? Plus many charities have an attached but separate business selling goods & services: I read NOT same protections for service-users as when the State provides?
I wouldn't want to talk to a 'therapist' who wasn't 'friendly'/kind; I suffered icy cold nasty 'Counsellor' refusing to ask about the REAL causes of why I felt so bad in 2005; she tried to blame me & everyone/everything EXCEPT true causes: #NHS medics' lies, denials & neglect+.
This sounds silly & awful; e.g. my neighbour's car had broken down & he had no breakdown ins (but was wealthy) so he asked me if I could tow his car to his place =I did, not paid=FREE & nearly burnt out my clutch out going up steep hill. Others have helped me =no payment. Normal.
Wilful & malicious Crimes against Humanity in the country that holds itself up as a beacon of righteousness to the rest of the world. Some of us here in UK with our sacred #NHS can't access healthcare either & some of it's so dangerous it injures/disables us=medics did that to me
