Fits into both Other Access Issues and Impairment-Specific Prejudice, but probably better in the former.

I have no blog but can I please make a plea for the deaf and hard of hearing. There's so much content coming out on video now but there are rarely any captions or notes to allow me to follow the video.

Please think of this when you're posting a video on your blog or setting up a workshop etc.

It should probably go into impairment-specific disablism, as it deals with depression/mental illness.

I was a day late because I didn't know about it! Better late than never.

This is about benefits - not sure where it would best fit! Probably thoughts about disability :) xxx

Oh, wait, surely it is "General Thoughts". 8-) Sorry I didn't see that category before.

I think this goes in healthcare, other access, impairment-specific, and maybe in general thoughts.

Thanks sooo much for doing this!
