Our latest Ambassador, Emma, talks about her love of the Theatre and her Access Card with @DMTWestEnd
The role of an Access Card ambassador is, in part, to show other disabled people that there's a whole range of opportunities and adventures to be had

Re the shady @PassAssistance PR strategy & what @EHRC had to say about it (should anyone want to report breaches of this to the @ASA_UK AND @EHRC for regulatory investigation)

PRESS STATEMENT
Harpreet Kaur, The Apprentice winner 2022, has bought back Lord Sugar's shares in her desserts business, Oh So Yum! This move marks a significant achievement in the journey of the Yorkshire based entrepreneur, who won Season 16 of the show and secured a £250,000 investment from Lord Sugar.
With the purchase of Lord Sugar's shares, Harpreet and her sister, Gurvinder Kaur, are now in in full control of the business and its future direction. The separation has been amicable and Lord Sugar and Harpreet Kaur mutually agreed it was the best decision for the business moving forward.
Lord Sugar said: “ Harpreet is an exceptionally bright and driven business woman. I’ve enjoyed our time working together, and whilst the time is right for us to now go our separate ways, I have no doubts she will continue to flourish. I look forward to seeing the Oh So Yum! brand go from strength to strength.”
Harpreet Kaur said: “ I am extremely grateful for the knowledge and support that Lord Sugar and his team of advisors have given me. It has been invaluable in getting Oh So Yum! to the place where it is today, and I’m excited for the journey ahead. I could never have imagined what we would have achieved in such a short space of time, but this is just the beginning. Watch this space!”

Urging everyone who requires assistance on the railway to start asserting your right to spontaneous travel / turn up and go, as OFTEN as you can now, daily if you have the energy. Let’s all show them how many ppl they’ll be screwing over if they remove staff & our right to TUAG! – at Sant Antoni de Portmany, Spain

Did you see the latest Lifestyle Magazine from Motability?
Many of our providers got a name check on their access schemes and how easy it is for @accesscard holders to have their needs met way before they even knew they wanted to visit!

@AccessCard A massive thank you. You guys are nothing but amazing.
The access card has allowed me to access so much and its also allowed me to continue with my love of theme parks. Keep up the good work!
The last few weeks have been the most ridiculous we've ever had.
It's important to take a moment for self-care.
Today was a good day.

My son has an Access Card & it makes his life - and mine as his carer - a lot easier.
I don't know of any others.

Yet again, we're sorry to see tweets cuckooed by another
card provider trying to undermine our work and self promote.
We believe choice is a fundamental aspect of accessibility and independence. Check out our feed and theirs and any others and find the right scheme for you.
