Hi all! I developed this survey as part of my Arts Council England DYCP and would be so grateful if anyone who identifies as neurodivergent & is working in the sector could take some time to fill it out so the fantastic The Neurodiverse Museum can keep making the change we need! ✨❀️πŸ₯°βœ¨

Working with the The Neurodiverse Museum team has been a joy. They are just the most incredible people! I hope anyone who caught their presentation at the Museums Association conference this week enjoyed learning about their amazing work ❀️

I am absolutely in favour of bodily autonomy and people to die in the way they wish, *however* a lot of disabled people have flagged some major concerns about this legislation as it stands. Please, please pay attention to their concerns.

I received my copies of "Disability in Ancient Egypt and Egyptology: All Our Yesterdays" today. Also the blog I co-authored for the British Museum on ancient Egyptian disability went live. Very excited to see both in print! britishmuseum.org/blog/eight-his…

β€œIf you are not disabled and you regularly go to a yoga class, a book group or just the pub, when was the last time you did so with even a single disabled adult present?” Thanks to John Harris for being one of the rare columnists to ask these Qs. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
