Are you passionate about social inclusion and accessibility for all? If so, you may be interested in Buggy Off, a 4-minute film directed by Karen Sutherland. The film is about how Karen felt when people's prejudice prevented her and her wheelchair from travelling to work by bus.
Buggy Off is both poignant and thought-provoking. It was published by Get2gether, a small charity that has set up a friendship and dating service in Edinburgh and the Lothians for people with disabilities.
We read about the film in a newsletter from Equal Futures, a family-led organisation in Scotland which has been building lifelong circles of friendship and advocacy for many years.
