Today marks the last day of Disability Pride Month, but it doesn't mean the end of disability pride.

Remember:

1. Disability isn't a bad word
2. Disabled people are the experts in their own lives
3. Not every disability is visible
4. Pointing out inaccessibility will give agency to your life
5. Every disabled person is different
6. Disabled lives intersect every other live
7. Speaking up about life experience will bring awareness
8. Disabled people have autonomy over their own lives

James Casserly, a 16 year old who has cerebral palsy, has set himself the challenge to travel to all 32 counties on public transport to find out exactly how accessible Ireland is.

He reviews everything from wheelchair ramp availability to disabled toilet provisions in all the places he visits.

James says "I want wheelchair users to be able to go wherever they please and not have to worry about checking all that stuff themselves beforehand,"
