Enabling play means enabling friendships, connections, and social engagements that would otherwise be impossible for disabled players. Considering making a donation?

Higher Educational Leader, Marketing director, Founder/CEO of #waveodessabusinessschool, Educational Developer, Lifelong Learner.
Inclusion is a powerful trend that is gradually changing the environment, pedagogy, attitude towards children, working and social space all over the world. The best way to understand this trend is from the example of a country where society is #already inclusive! This is the kind of society my children (and I, of course) find ourselves in right now. Inclusion (from #inclusion - #включения) is the process of real inclusion in the active life of society of people who have difficulties in #physical development, including those with #disability or mental characteristics. Charitable foundations work to remove the stigma from people with disabilities, to give them the opportunity to study and do what they love. A week before the big Halloween holiday 🎃 in Canada, our street, thanks to the help of a charity fund, creates a #holiday of music, candy, gifts, etc. for children with #disabilities. Every house is happy to welcome children, because there is a carnival and smiles on the street all day. Every child is surrounded by warmth and love. All children - ❗️ together. No one can see the difference. Children hug each other and, most importantly, understand that only #love and care for each other can change the world. #A good example can change each of us. #Goodness changes the world. And good wins. There is no other outcome of events… And now too: GOOD will win.

This Global Accessibility Awareness Day, we're highlighting the importance of digital access and inclusion for disabled and neurodivergent people. 🌐 Research suggests that 7 in 10 disabled people leave a website if they find it difficult to use. Recognising this, we embarked on a mission to enhance our website's user experience so that it's easier to navigate, especially for neurodivergent and disabled people. 📱 After months of research, beneficiary focus groups, and meticulous planning, we proudly launched our new and improved website back in January of this year, built by SO Marketing and incorporating accessiBe's web accessibility widget, along with our brand-new platform “#JoinTheChange”. As a charity, we are always striving to make sure everything we do is inclusive for all. We are shaped by listening to our beneficiaries and their families and will continue to push for positive change and improvement. 💜 Read more 👉 bit.ly/3UFYuEJ #CaudwellChildren #Charity #GlobalAccessibilityAwarenessDay #Accessibility #Website #WebsiteAccessibility #Inclusion #Inclusive #Disabled #Disability #Neurodivergent #Digital
