This is such important research and something that’d largely go unreported if it wasn’t for disabled media, such as Access All. It’s a double stigma: non-disabled authorities think it’s entirely normal to treat disabled people this way - and many non-disabled journalists do too.

In Frank Gardner's own words: This is 2024, and I find it extraordinary that an airline is allowed to fly in and out of British airports with a policy that effectively says ‘if you can’t walk, you can’t go to the toilet on our planes’. #RightsOnFlights #EndAbleism

Hi Lord Sugar, I’m a blind person. I can’t believe I’m having to say this, but disabilities aren't gimmicks. Having disability representation on @BBCStrictly makes people like me feel seen. It shows what we can do, not what we can’t do. There’s nothing gimmicky about that.

Our house Network Day panel discussion Creating meaningful connections digitally, has been fascinating. Digital content can ‘give audiences ownership of their choices’ to access work and ‘connect audiences who may feel disconnected from traditional venues’.

I’d wondered whether, being visually impaired, I’d enjoy watching dance. Experiencing Stopgap Dance’s show Lived Fiction - with integrated access key to every element - was a revelation. Here’s the piece I wrote about my window into dance: theguardian.com/stage/2024/nov…
