@tink.ukTwo great points from Sheri Byrne-Haber

@tink.uk@remysharp.com Firstly, thank you 😊 Secondly, not a clue. I don't use the Bluesky app, I use an accessible one called FastSM, so perhaps it's that. I just paste the URL into the message field. I could well be holding it wrong! Will investigate though.
@tink.ukWe've rounded up all the resources the @TetraLogical.com team has put together and put them all in one place (with more to come): https://tetralogical.com/resources/ #accessibility #resources
@tink.ukRNLI volunteer lifeboat crews & lifeguards have saved more than 147,000 lives since 1824. Now they're being targeted by Fascists in black shirts & balaclavas for rescuing migrants. I've donated to the RNLI to support them. https://rnli.org/support-us/give-money/donate #Portsmouth #resistance
