When opening social media at the moment I hold my breath and prepare for the next ‘breaking news’ of 2016. What a year, I’m not going to go into my thoughts on the world, deaths and politics right now because it’s a bit grim isn’t it. Instead I thought I’d write...

Don’t worry – this isn’t an ad for a well known supermarket. This time of year there’s a lot of shopping going on. People are #PANICKING. Shopping can be a hard task for me as a disabled person anyway like traveling to the actual shops etc but add in...

Today is International day of persons with disabilities (I always find the “persons” bit weird…) and I thought I’d answer the most common questions I get asked, mostly by strangers, at least once a month, just for the lols *note: this blog may contain wit and sarcasm How old...

One thing I love, if you can’t tell already is taking time on my appearance and my hair is no different. However, having short arms can make make this a difficult and sometimes infuriating task. It’s taken a lot of years to practise and a lot of patience to master styling...
