Thank You Alice Wong Alice Wong has passed away and the disability community has lost a leader. I lost a mentor and a friend. The Disabled Ginger wouldn't exist without Alice and everything she taught me.

“She explained how much Covid could hurt her & how vulnerable it felt to be unable to wear a mask to protect herself.

She was a perfect example of why other people need to wear masks even if they don’t personally think Covid will hurt them”

If you want to honour Alice Wong’s memory, please mask up

Alice Wong, disability activist and luminary, dies at 51 - The Sick Times Alice Wong platformed and uplifted people with Long COVID in her final chapter as a lifelong disability advocate and storyteller.

Rest in peace, Alice Wong 🕊️

Back to school - Smart Air UK Get classrooms ready for cleaner air. We’ve listened to what schools asked for and built smart, school-friendly solutions that take the hassle out of setup. Why choose clean air Cleaner air means…

London schools are breathing cleaner air thanks to the Mayor’s School Filters Programme 🍃 The Blast & Blast Mini made it happen, cutting classroom pollution by up to 68%.

Let’s make this the norm across the UK.

The lady at the charity shop today told me that she wishes people would clear out their children's old toys in the lead up to Christmas rather than after because she always sees a number of parents in the days before Christmas looking for toys for their little ones who might be strapped for cash. She said there's very rarely anything in just before, but that they get inundated with toys in the days after. And it really made me think about it in a way I never would have before. If you know your child is going to get lots of presents from father Christmas this year, by clearing out your cupboards a few days early you could make another child's Christmas a lot more special too. Saw this & thought I'd repost

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.”

Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

Last year we sold 5x more advent calendars than we have this August. Advent calendars are the biggest thing that keep the lights on at Skype a Scientist so this makes me a bit nervous!

These calendars are bright and cute and are full of really fun information about eels!
