Helen has a very poor care package sadly, despite being C4/5 and living alone. H wanted to join in today’s SkiErg challenge.... having no carers around wasn’t going to stop her. 💪🏻
Nothing but admiration for our pal H. (Nothing but disgust for her care providers) – at Royston, England

Growing up disabled you get exposed to so much "You can do ANYTHING if you try!"-type inspoporn that's damaging bc when you can't do things you internalize that you're not trying hard enough. There's power in reclaiming saying "No, I can't do that. My body doesn't work that way."

With M’s level of paralysis, marginal gains can be life changing.
Balance, posture, safety in her wheelchair, confidence... the list goes on but progress doesn’t just happen.

RT @DRNY_org: "I’m in my 30s, and I just cried in a toy store. Because I finally found a wheelchair user Barbie. I’ve never had a Barbie, but I bought one today. Let me tell you why."-@ginlemonadeblog

Ady joined our physio program last year. Today M and I hooked up with him to say thanks... after he recently raised over £700 to support our work. What a man! (Ady raised money by going up in a glider!! 🙌🏻) #legend #nolimits #spinalcordinjury

When Notre Dame was burning, the world's media covered every moment of it and billionaires rushed to restore it. Right now the Amazon is burning, the lungs of our planet. It has been burning for 3 weeks now. No media coverage. No billionaires. #PrayforAmazonia
