it is a progression and rarely happens overnight

After talking to us, Wigan Council have revised proposals for their planned enhancement of Leigh Civic Square. Designs consider safety and creating a welcoming space for women and girls- including clear sight-lines, lighting, zones for activities/play, and a variety of social seating.

MPs have been discussing the provision of playgrounds. Lots of valuable points raised, including MP Deirdre Costigan, Ealing Southall, suggesting Make Space for Girls guidance is used by developers/LAs.

There’s no right way to be disabled.

The idea that someone has to “look” disabled or meet certain criteria to be taken seriously is harmful and limiting.

Disability comes in countless forms, and every person’s story is different.

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all."

Arthur C. Clarke

What a great idea lots of activity for teens - maybe add shade seating area.

A reminder that swings are great, and even more so when they are using the spare space on top of a multi-storey carpark. Konditaget Lüders in Copenhagen, by
@JAJA_Architects. More of this kind of thing.

Stolen from Architektoniczk on LinkedIn but just 👀 at these graphs. The movement patterns of boys and girls in a Spanish school playground. Boys take up the centre, girls are literally marginalised. And what they learn in school they take into public space.
What a surprise.

As someone on SSDI I can't tell you how it hurts to listen to people speak about Social Security and Medicare but fail to mention the populations who subsist on these programs:

Seniors: 77.8%
Survivors: 11.2%
People w/Disabilities: 11%

It's very crucial in our messaging to ensure EVERYONE is seen.

This swing does allow for roll on use, although that it is only for one user, there is a roll on merry go round that allows for inclusive group play.

If you shovel the ramp, we can all get in. Clearing a path for people with disabilities clears a path for everyone.

Trump seems to be appointing people with skeletons in the closet he can exploit to keep control of appointees. We need to find and publish all of the skeletons
