Today would have been Euan’s 51st birthday 💛

Later this summer, Euan’s Guide will have a gentle refresh - a welcoming, clear and accessible new look. Our new logo features Euan’s handwriting, a lasting tribute to the man who started it all. buff.ly/kFIVyoM

Meet our new Review Coordinator, Pat!

Pat says, "When I became disabled, I missed doing the things I enjoyed. Getting back out there and travelling improved my quality of life, and I’m excited to share information that helps others do the same."

Please give them a warm welcome!

Fuelling the fire If you’ve read my blog before, you’ll recall that a clinical psychologist once explained to me that they felt writing was keeping me alive. And they were right. Like many disabled people, or indeed…
