| International Men's Day. We had a wonderful time on International Men's Day! We partnered with Token Man again to deliver a fantastic and emotional event. I'd say Gareth Thomas was one of the best keynote speakers I've ever seen. I had made up that things wouldn't be as powerful over zoom, but I was wrong. It was like having Gareth Thomas there with you in your living room!

Again we wanted to do something to mark the occasion. The theme this year is 'Building Back Better: toward a disability-inclusive, accessible and sustainable post COVID-19 World'. We are really aware that this global experiment in working at home has proven what many disabled people have said for year - we can and need to work more flexibly. However, we're also aware that the pandemic has exacerbated a lot of inequality. I will be speaking to Will Pike (Mumbai Terror Attack survivor and Disability Activist) and Emma Gardner (Co-Founder at Born Equal Consults striving for The Three Es: Everyday Equity for Everyone) about their vision for a post pandemic world which is truly inclusive for people with disabilities.
