FFS buy an effing RAMP!!!.We’re in 2019. If you invite wheelchair users to your diverse casting and you really mean it, you first make sure the venue is accessible! If not, you make it accessible. If it’s too much bother, then don’t bother in the 1st place! Enough is ENOUGH!!! 😡

THE CASE FOR INCLUSIVE CASTING: disabled people make up 20% of the UK population, classing them as the largest minority group. Yet, they only appear in 0.06% of advertising. We challenge you to learn more about the ethical, creative and economical reasons for inclusive casting.

One of our beautiful models getting the recognition she deserves- over 300k likes. The praise and attention Ellie has received reflects the demand for disabled models in the industry! Big brands, now is your time to follow suit 👏🏻.
This makes me so happy: Ellie Goldstein, an 18 year old model with Down’s syndrome starring in a Gucci Beauty campaign in Vogue Italia. This is the type of inclusion the industry needs, hopefully more brands will follow in the same direction!

Such an important message. It sounds crazy to still have to spell it out. And yet. #VisibleHate is real. .
Over a quarter of people with a visible difference have experienced a hate crime. Together we can stop #VisibleHate. 👉 [Warning: contains offensive language that people with a visible difference face every day]
