During this time, we need your support more than ever to help us continue supporting people with sight loss. Fundraising will look very different at the moment, but there are still ways you can get involved!
Thanks so much for inviting me! Really informative & great to all be working together 👍 #HateCrime @YorkCVS
Dawid’s thoughts on a fascinating #youthcommission #HateCrime #MateCrime subgroup: “Interesting to learn that BLM protests in NYorks are more about anti-racism than anti-Police.” : @LeadersUnlocked @northyorkspfcc @psthreeseventwo @YouthTeamNYP @NYSCP1 @york_safe @NYorksPolice

Great news that Rail companies are recognising the #SunflowerLanyard scheme - needed now more than ever.
🌻 We're pleased to announce that every train company in Britain now recognises the @sunflwrlanyards scheme.
The Sunflower lanyard can be used by passengers with non-visible disabilities to discretely indicate to rail staff that they may need assistance.

Great news for us Rachael. We need someone like you who understands and champions the VCS in our corner, now more than ever.
