18 November to 18 December marks Disability History Month.
This year we’ve experienced unprecedented challenges and we know that in these circumstances marginalised groups are often hit the hardest. For LGBT disabled people facing restrictions on leaving your home, barriers to accessing healthcare or support can have a huge impact.
However, there remains a lack of understanding of the lives and experiences of LGBT disabled people. That’s why this Disability History Month, Stonewall’s Accessibility Forum is platforming the voices and experiences of LGBT disabled people.
Now more than ever, it’s crucial that we celebrate and support our whole community. You can start by reading and sharing the content below.
