'I’m a human being' by Jodie Greer

By Mary Fickling on Oct 28 2022.
'I’m a human being' by Jodie Greer People often ask me why I’m so passionate about disability inclusion, and why I would’ve left a very successful corporate career to commit my professional life to improving inclusion in other companies, and they’re particularly perplexed when I tell them I’m currently non-disabled. Well, the answer is pretty easy – I’m human too.

Highlights of The British Lymphology Society (BLS) Annual Conference 2022 - By Gaynor Leech, Lymphoedema Patient Advocate and Founder of LWO Community It was great to be back at a 'in-person' conference, which was again held at Yarnfield Park, Stone. Monday (as I have previously written) was a day of workshops and unfortunately, because of co-presenting my own workshops, I missed the one on skincare, which I would love to have attended. Skincare is one of my health passions.

Austin’s Amazing Adventures - A Book by Dave Steele, The Blind Poet

By Mary Fickling on Oct 25 2022.
Austin’s Amazing Adventures - A Book by Dave Steele, The Blind Poet I recently had the pleasure to connect with Dave Steele on Twitter and said that I would be delighted to share his latest book and I asked Dave what the inspiration for the book was? "Well I genuinely care about helping others Mary. My poetry is used by people all over the world, as a way to feel less alone living with blindness, as well as a tool for them to explain to their loved ones what they struggle to find the words for.." What a remarkable gentleman. I am positive this book will be very successful and have already shared it with many of my school teacher friends.

DEEP OSCILLATION Feedback from Alison Sheff "I have been watching and reading all I could on Deep Oscillation for some time.  Watching and listening to feedback from others in therapy groups, particularly those offering Scar Therapy.
