Forbes Online posted an article which showed the 7 things disabled people have to think about, which non-disabled types don’t have to. Simon thinks it’s informative and helpful, like an access rider. Phil bemoans why we still need to tell people the basics.

There are big concerning issues relating to disability right now.
Why isn’t the UK Government meeting with the UN about its obligations under the Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities?
How do you justify the possible closures of ticket offices at train stations, which will impact disabled travellers more than most?

As is our way, it’s personal, too. We make an appointment with Phil’s radiotherapy treatment and head to the athletics stadium where Simon competed at the World Dwarf Games in Cologne.
