After taking part in the May50k I thoroughly enjoyed the benefits it brought including a bit of weight loss(woohoo!) and more upper body strength -so I’m excited to keep it going by doing the MS walk or in my case, roll with my freewheel! 💪🏼👩🏼‍🦽🧡
Sponsorship needn’t be a large sum, every amount helps no matter how small - it all adds up!
Please sponsor me £5! 🤞🏼

Helloooo Backchatters!
My boys and The Man are supporting me in taking part in The May 50K! We will be taking on 50km throughout May and leaving our (ok MY) limits behind to raise funds for life-changing research into multiple sclerosis and better access to treatments.
There are over 130,000 people in Britain living with MS and we need your help to leave MS where it belongs, behind us.

I’ll be updating my/our progress with videos and photos as we go!
Please make a donation towards our fundraiser today and support our team challenge.
If you’d like to involved you can join our team and share the challenge to walk, run OR roll 50km this May 😎

Thank you for your support!

We're taking part in The May 50K to support research into multiple sclerosis and create better access to treatments.

I’ve not been posting much on social media, in particular about trying to sell my stuff- you already know what I do so if you’re interested, you know where to buy it!⁠
⁠
So, I’ve been busying myself with preparing for the big day to come and making stuffs! (will share some of my makes after Xmas! 😉). ⁠
Plus The Boy 👦🏻 is back, yay! 👏🏼I took this snap in the hotel just before we went to pick him up 😎⁠
I’ve taken the decision to spend less time worrying about posting on social media and more time concentrating on what *really* matters -⁠
It’s so good to have all my brood back together and I can’t wait for Xmas day when we can all truly celebrate, because after all, family is what it’s all about and the only thing that really matters! ♥️

Today is International Day of People with Disabilities!⠀
To celebrate, buildings & landmarks purple across the world are lighting up Purple!

I am different, I am disabled and I am PROUD to be part of the community!⠀
Obviously I’ve already got the purple bit nailed! 🤓💜😎⠀

I am getting so seriously fed up of Facebook (and so by default, Instagram)'s stoopid 'policies'. I'm at the point of giving up, because it seems the ableist world of social media is working its hardest to stop me.⁠⠀
I'm NOT going to stop shouting about it but i AM so worn down by the daily (yes DAiLY, i've had 74 more items rejected yet again today) battle of fighting of justifying my items just to get them seen.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It's maddening that FB is constantly trying to get small independent sellers like myself to advertise our products with them yet also constantly 'rejects' the very same products, all because of their very ableist policies! 😠⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Note to Facebook/Instagram, and PLEASE PAY ATTENTiON: ⁠⠀
my items should NOT be rejected- they are neither medical NOR healthcare products, they are simply humourous tops for other wheelchair users like myself, to raise awareness and make light of the comments and reactions er often encounter. ⁠⠀
Furthermore, you're blanket assumption that anything related to wheelchairs constitutes MEDiCAL/HEALTHCARE items is incredibly ABLEiST so STOP doing it!⁠⠀
