I’m signing this pledge to say, I stand with you – Sense – the national disability charity that supports everyone who is deafblind or has complex disabilities.
I want to help you break down communication barriers – that can lead to devastating loneliness and isolation for disabled people.
I want to help you break the physical barriers – that can stop disabled people for taking part in life – everything from inaccessible shops without wheelchair ramps to signs that people with visual impairments can’t read.
I want to help you break down social barriers – the stereotypes and assumptions about what a disabled person can or can’t do – the things that can hold them back from realising their full potential in life.
