Just a note for everyone that we are the Disabled wing of the IRISH Labour Party, not the UK. If you're tagging us, ensure you don't have us confused with our comrades, @DisabilityLab who are flying the flag for us in the UK
Powerful words from James,Shelly, Claire& Patrick representing @ILMIreland
The vital importance of a PA to allow disabled people to be who they truly are
The dignity & power in gaining employment.
So much to do to ensure disabled persons are truly respected in this country
For the month of January we wish to highlight the work of disabled artists & academics. If u are a disabled artist or academic, or u know work by disabled artist/academic please reply with a link to the work. @emilieconway @MadICarMoody@jazzireland@Praxis_Union@artscouncil_ie
