    Back in 2018 we shared our suggestions for some bloggers to add to your reading list. We’re back again with more suggestions as we’ve discovered even more great disabled bloggers for you to follow.

    Shona Louise

    Shona is a powerchair user, writer and activist who shares her passion for theatre on her blog as well as talking about her life as a disabled person. Her recent blog on the challenges of being a disabled photographer combines both of topics as she discusses things like the lack of accessible backstage areas. You’ll find loads of interesting posts on her blogs and, as you might expect, lots of great photos!

    Dinosaurs, Donkeys and MS

    Many people have taken to social media instead of a traditional blog to share their stories and experiences. Here are some great ones from social media!

    Wheelie Good Life

    Jennie’s popular Instagram account is a place for her to document her daily life in a wheelchair. She has a following of over 20,000 and shares what she is up to, including recipes, make-up and pyshio. Last year she spoke to Jeremy Vine on Radio 2 about the importance of having usable red emergency cords and she continues to spread the message of the benefit of using our Red Cord Cards to help make accessible toilets safer.
