And the how to contribute....

Yesterday was World Braille Day. A day to celebrate the power of accessibility and inclusion. Braille enables independence, communication, and access to education and employment for people who are blind or vision impaired. As businesses, we can take steps to make our workplaces truly inclusive. In our work with organisations, we often see that accessibility is an afterthought rather than part of the design process. Incorporating tools like Braille or screen-reader-friendly materials is not just compliance—it’s respect. Small changes can make a big difference. Check out Vision Australia’s guide to making workplaces accessible: Vision Australia Accessibility Resources. https://lnkd.in/gAsq4h62 #AssistiveTech #CollaborativeCulture #braille #InclusiveWorkplaces

😎 Many have talked about Iris Apfel's eye-catching outfits, her personality, and her eyeglasses, to name a few. But one thing that’s not talked about enough is how she gave the middle finger to ageism.

🎵 Name That Finish Line Tune 🎵 Firstly a massive thank you to everyone who has sponsored me so far on my London Marathon challenge and journey - I’m blown away by how well my page has raised to date🙏 Let’s see if we can make the two week lead in to taking on 26.2 miles around london a bit fun and bolster the money that can be raised for the brilliant GOSH. Right here we go: Specified Contracts Ltd https://lnkd.in/e3c2BRw5 have donated the latest I Pad to enable this little bit of fun to take place - a massive thank you to Specified for your kindness🫶 For a £10 sponsor and the choice of the song that you would like to add to a playlist that will be created for the entire run leading up to the day by all who take part, you could win the IPad. At the start line I will press the shuffle all button on the playlist and it will randomly play out the list. The proposed tune that is playing when I do the screen recording as I cross the finish line will win the I Pad. The average song is 3 minutes so we are looking for 20 songs per hour and I hope for no more than 5hrs:30mins. So that’s a total of 110 songs or participants proposing their songs - but if there’s more then that is fine so donate away and let see what we can do for GOSH. All you need to do is put your name in the below Enthuse link and where it says message, the name of your song (an i tunes link is even easier for me to add). Obviously if you want to leave any other good luck messages they all help ❤️. https://lnkd.in/g8yYsBAJ The full list will be published on the Saturday night before race day - be kind with the songs please🙏 For those that have already sponsored please DM with one song choice and it will be added to the playlist. One song per sponsor; not going to say no if you want to sponsor more than £10 - but that is the minimum to have a chance of winning the I Pad and hopefully keep each sponsor at an affordable level for all. First come first serve on the selected song; if you select a song that has been already selected I will choose an alternative for you and let you know the selected alternative . If the 110 songs are not all filled I will fill with my own tunes that I’d like to hear to get me over that line and down the last half mile or so - if it’s one of those songs I’m screen recording when I cross the line then I will donate it directly to GOSH or a known child patient in our community. Good luck and thank you in advance for your support 🙏

How Will You Honor Orange Shirt Day?   Orange Shirt Day is only two weeks away, and the countdown is on! 🧡 It’s more than just a day to wear orange—it’s a powerful reminder of the impact of residential schools on Indigenous communities and an opportunity for all of us to take part in the journey of healing and reconciliation. Whether you're an individual supporter or part of a company that wants to make a difference, there are meaningful ways you can get involved.   Here are a few ways to participate and honor the day:  👕 Wear your Old's Cool x AHF orange shirt: to spark conversations and show visible support for the survivors of residential schools. It’s not just a shirt, it’s a statement. Every shirt sold helps fund Indigenous health programs, making a real impact in the lives of those who need it most.     🧡 Attend local events: focused on learning and reflection. Whether it’s an educational webinar, a community walk, or a storytelling session with Indigenous Elders, these events provide a space for you to listen, learn, and reflect on the legacy of residential schools.     📖 Educate yourself and others about Truth and Reconciliation. Share what you learn with friends, family, and coworkers. Start conversations that challenge assumptions, promote understanding, and inspire action toward reconciliation. Knowledge is a powerful tool for change.     With only two weeks left, now is the perfect time to start planning how you’ll honor the day. Every step toward awareness, understanding, and healing contributes to a brighter future for all of us. Take action today and be part of the movement toward reconciliation and healing for Indigenous communities.    Check out this link to purchase your orange shirt today! https://lnkd.in/eHFa6FPF Let’s make every moment count as we move toward Orange Shirt Day.
