Sharing what disability feels like with you!
As a Disability Awareness Consultant, I want to touch on the lived experience of disability, and what that actually feels like. I want to understand and explore what disability means. What access/accessibility really means. I want us to talk about disability in a way that is honest, that doesn’t shy away from the tough stuff - the realities of the disabled experience that are so often sugar-coated. Well, not here.
I will use my lived experience as a disabled man, wheelchair user and Cripple Content Creator to open up the narrative of disability and touch on parts of that experience that we don’t talk about enough. I want to use my knowledge, share my stories and make you take a long look at disability from a whole new perspective.
