Thank you to the London Borough of Hounslow for having me this morning as a keynote speaker for their celebration of International Disabled People’s Day #IDPD24!
My speech, “No Planet Without Us,” was about how disabled wisdom & ingenuity is critical to successful climate action. 🌍♿️

Two images side by side. The first is a social media frame from the Not Dead Yet UK group. The text in red, white & black text on a yellow background says ‘Suzanne says Assist us to live, not die! I love my life. The photo in the image is of a white skinned middle-aged disabled woman, in a packed cafe, sitting in her wheelchair. She is pouring custard into a bowl of apple crumble. She is smiling. The second image is a self-portrait in acrylics in a cartoon-style. It is of a woman say in a wheelchair, with a blue umbrella covering her legs. Text across the umbrella painted in red capitals say ‘Yes I’m quite satisfied with how I turned out.
Happy International Day of Disabled People! Yes, I’m still here & happy, suckers! #IDPD24
The Biden administration is taking steps to eliminate a program from the Great Depression that permits certain employers to pay disabled workers significantly less than the minimum wage. This move fulfills one of President Biden's campaign promises.

International day of person's with disabilities #idpd24 who's theme this year is #leadership makes me think it's a good idea to share my @churchillfship.bsky.social report on here www.churchillfellowship.org/ideas-expert...
If they have, can we share this, to counter the hiding of those seeking to make visible the experience of hidden disability. Thank you all. #IDPD #IDPwD #hiddendisability #IDPwD24 #IDPD24
It's a game-changer when you finally realise that sharing your challenges doesn't make you weak—it's the start of empowering change. We spoke with Darryl Adams after he retired from Intel after an incredible 28-year career.
