It is normal to be disabled, just as it is normal to be Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual or Trans (LGBT) — around one in five people in the UK are disabled, although they may or may not identify with this label. As with LGBT people, it is the artificial barriers society creates that prevent disabled and older people from participating fully in society.
The OVOLOW Resource Hub acknowledges First Nations peoples as the Traditional Custodians of their unceded lands, seas, and waters of so-called Australia, and pays respect to all First Nations Elders. This always has been and always will be Aboriginal land. We pay our respects to all First Nations LGBTIQA+ people with disability and recognise the distinct and significant contributions they make to Australian life and disability and LGBTIQA+ communities.
The OVOLOW Resource Hub recognises LGBTIQA+ people with disability as the leaders and co-creators of this work. We acknowledge the generosity of this community whose stories, knowledge, experiences, and expertise make these resources possible for the betterment of all. ‘Nothing about us without us’.
