I’ve had my microwave since 2009. It's now knackered..I ordered a new microwave today.

I can tell I'm old, because I'm excited to get a new microwave.

My sitting in my powered wheelchair wearing a yellow safety vest is in front of several buses at a transit station. Text reads: "World Public Transport Day: Progress Matters But We're Not There Yet.

World Public Transport Day

Transport should mean freedom.

For disabled people, it often means uncertainty.

Progress is happening. But accessibility still isn’t guaranteed.

At the reopening of the Public Inquiry in Omagh today, standing with Save Our Sperrins and local campaigners.

The risks to our environment and water are too high.

This goldmine would directly impact my respiratory health.

This week, I spoke on the Save Our Sperrins podcast about the parallels of my campaigning for deaf and disabled rights, with the campaign to protect the Sperrins from industrialisation.

Happy Easter everyone.

Hope you get a decent break this weekend.

I’m taking a bit of personal time too.

Might see the odd message, but I’m off-work for a few days.

Back soon 👍

A person in a powered wheelchair moves through an airport terminal. Text reads: "When a Wheelchair User Boarding a Flight Becomes Fatal. MYWAY ACCESS.

This is a warning.

A disabled man died during a plane transfer.

Not an isolated incident. A system failure.

This risk exists in the UK and Ireland too.

“Nothing went wrong” isn’t safety.

Clocks go forward 1 hour Sunday at 1am.

You lose an hour.
We lose routine, stability, control.

Missed meds. Exhaustion. Days thrown off.

It’s not about how much time you have.

It’s how it affects others.

“Just an hour” can be the difference between coping and not.

Not safety. Failure.

They knew.
Did nothing.

Now families pay.

Started writing the odd blog again and honestly, I’ve missed it.

Thinking of making it regular. Maybe twice a month.

Not just disabled issues. My take on whatever’s happening in the world.

Though let’s be real, disability will probably feature heavily.

Worth doing?

A young me wearing a medical halo brace is shown in an inset over a background of the old Duke of Gloucester Ward from 1991 at Stanmore Hospital in Middlesex England text reads, “35 Years Ago: The Surgery That Shaped My Fight, MYWAY ACCESS.”.

35 years ago today, I had spinal surgery that changed my life.

It shaped how I see access, inclusion and why I challenge systems today.

This isn’t theory. It’s lived experience.

Yesterday was one of those real, honest days.

Up to Belfast City Hospital for a check up on my Morquio, a few things to watch but not bad going.

Stopped at the Glenavon Hotel, staff were brilliant.

Disabled life is quiet battles and small wins.

Pure news from Scotland on St Patrick’s Day

I hope this is replicated in the House of Lords for England and Wales.

A dangerous act that makes so many disabled people vunerable.

My Way Access has published a working draft of our response to the Draft NI Executive Disability Strategy 2025–2035.

We were part of the co-design group and believe Deaf and Disabled people deserve better.

Sign the Open Letter: NI Executive Ministers must revise the Draft Disability Strategy I've signed this open letter calling on the NI Executive to revise the Draft Disability Strategy - will you add your name too?

I was on the original co-design panel for the Disability Strategy.

This draft is a huge disappointment.

Disabled people deserve real action, not weak words and empty promises.

If you care about our rights, please sign the petition and share it widely.

Look at the obscene profits oil companies are raking in as war pushes oil prices through the roof.

And we’re still supposed to believe this war is about “freedom”? Don’t insult our intelligence.

Apres Match: Northern Ireland Sports Results

This popped into my memory this morning again, so watched it again.

20 years old and still makes me roar with laughter.

Today I let my raw emotions out in a MS Teams meeting.

Stuff that has been bubbling away in me for 18 months came rushing to the surface.

No regrets, but that where I am these days.

Controversial opinion, but 'Sister Act 2' and 'School of Rock' are essentially the same film.
