How You Can Make Events and Gatherings More Inclusive
We all want to feel included, respected, and like our needs matter. This is especially for events and gatherings big and small. Watch this to learn some tips and prespectives to help be more inclusive.
As someone on the spectrum of blindness, I have had thousands of experiences where accomodations were ether not provided, thought of, or considered with no effort at all. I was much less enthusiastic to ever attend that venue, event, or gathering again.
With awareness and effort, you can help be a part of the solution and not contribute to the problem with lack of prep and planning.

Did they ever started the virtual be my eye, also what is the second app that you mentioned it is called something like Neverland how is the spelling so I could get to it thank you and keep up the good work and thank you for your Videos
Hi, I am totally blind, would like to know do you use a slicer? If so, which one you recommend I love being in the kitchen but cutting it’s not my thing.
Just found your video love your hacks. I would like to share some of your tips on my RUclips channel if possible. Some of them sound great I have never thought of them.

I have a hard time cooking meat so I buy chicken that is freshly cooked from the grocery store and make chicken soup with herbs,mrs.dash,pepper,frozen veggies and low sodium or vegetable broth in my soups and freeze them in containers to heat up and eat a warm bowl of soup.
Some day in the near future I am going to live on my own but for now I live at home helping my senior mom,niece and disabled nephew and our 2 female spayed therapy cats
I do not have those oven protectors to protect myself from getting burned.Where do I buy them
Hi Cindy,I am also legally blind with limited vision,I use a white cane,I use a talking scale when I am cooking or baking,I have a talking weight scale to keep an eye on my weight,I use colored cutting boards and colored knives,I use a lighted magnifier to read my magazines books etc.
👍
I've noticed that also
I once had an airport employee ask if i wanted to sit in a wheelchair after flying back from oakland this was in 2009 and, i'm also visually impaired
It helped me decide if I was purchasing the machine. Thank you.
I want be a leader for self awareness
I have anger problems
I want to help others speak up for themselves
I am a self advocate
I am advocating for people to stand up for themselves
I know a guy in 2016 that went to Thailand and cured blindness from glaucoma.
Thank you for the video.
Do NOT rearrange the furniture!
How do u change the plastic tags? I can’t pull it out? I need a shorter tag but i cannot release the longer tag that’s already installed..
How do I find these items on Amazon
Extremely helpful video. I have flown a few times alone now. Never had an issues with the airport or airline staff. Fellow passengers have been either lovely or plain nasty. I think the latter don't fully understand why a blind person would prefer a window seat - "You can'r see out the window buddy". Nor why I am blind, but can use a cell phone and feed myself. I don't like having to justify myself. The godsend to air travel alone for me has been Airtags from Apple. Precision location with audible guiding. I have the in my luggage, wallet etc.
How to be confident
good review, thanks
Thank goodness i found your video, Cindy,, and it and everyone,s cooments really helped. I am determined to travel. With my cane, too!😊
Independence is my biggest struggle. I've been visually impaired since birth, so I've never driven. I use Uber and am not afraid to ask friends or family for help, but it's still hard to not be able to go where I need (or want) to go right when I want to. Planning ahead is key, as if having a Plan B and know who I can truly rely on. For example, I discovered that the van for those with disabilities isn't helpful for appointments because they can arrive late or early and still be considered "on time." I tend to stick to what works and causes less stress.
P.S. No one has pulled me by my cane, but every time I go through security, the agent takes my cane away to put it through the metal detector separately. I always want to tell them, "You aren't supposed to take a visually impaired person's cane." But I'm afraid of getting in trouble.
I love this video and plan to start following your channel more. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and perspective. I am visually impaired (classified legally blind due to congenital achromatopsia) and have traveled solo several times, including internationally. I have had wonderful and frustrating experiences. Like you, I always call the airline to request assistance, consider preboarding an absolute must, and have learned to use my white cane when traveling by myself. The wheelchair issue is hard for me too. I totally get the reasoning behind it, but I struggle with feeling disrespected when the airport insists I use one. In the end, I decided going with the flow is worth it if I can get to my flight safely and on time. I agree that a lot of bad experiences happen because of lack of education and understanding of how to serve those with disabilities. Part of me wants to sit every airport assistant down and gently tell them, "A person in need of assistance is still a grown up. Please speak respectfully. Speak TO the person you are assisting, not to the person pushing the wheelchair. They have the same desire to get a coffee or snack or visit the shops during a long layover as everyone else, so it would be great if you could make it clear they are allowed to do that." My most upsetting experience took place at London Heathrow. My assistant pushed me up to security, the agent asked me, "Are you able to walk through the metal detector?" I said yes and started to get up, and my assistant insisted, "No. Stay in the chair." All I could think of to do was joke, "I guess no." So they patted me down. It was humiliating. I included the story in my customer evaluation. However, when my connection got canceled, British Airways took such good care of me. They rescheduled my flight, booked a hotel room for me, got me there and back to the airport the next morning. If hadn't requested airport assistance, I would've been on my own and totally stranded. In August, I'm flying through Heathrow again on my way to teach at a writing Seminar outside Geneva, Switzerland. I'll let you know how it goes! 😄
BIG question!! I just posted on another one of your posts... Sorry 😕 I'm a new follower, my husband was diagnosed with stargardts. My husband says wearing sunglasses make it much harder for him to see. He won't wear them being outside because of that. Even though he was told otherwise and knows sunglasses will protect his eyes. Any suggestions??? Thanks
Hello! I'm new to your channel and am enjoying it. I am searching around doing research because my husband was just diagnosed with stargardts 10 months ago. He went from 20/20 vision to Legally Blind 20/200, 20/400 within a matter of 6 months! Lost everything, every ability he's ever known for 44 years. We have a large family, 8 children. He cannot perform the job he had prior and he has absolutely no idea what he can do to go on being a provider for his family. It breaks my heart to see him struggle. I am researching all I can to help in through this. He is, as he says "not ready" to move forward. Finding assistance or help with his vision loss and I am practically begging him to start finding help. How can I, being his wife and biggest supporter help him through this trial? How can I help him? I know people with stargardts thrive but he is not understanding of that and I want him to flourish! any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank You! For your channel ❤️ Also, I would like to add. We were not given much info or support. Just diagnosed and can't do much more for you. We have been figuring this out on our own knowing nothing.
We can do anything reset our mind of doing! As legally blind or blind people! I'm 100% legally blind and I do stuff all the time
Hello I'm considered legally blind as well too!
I also have star guards, and usually people don’t know I’m blind unless I say I am still working on my confidence being blind, but that would be nice for accommodations at gathering, but that means I would have to speak up💜😊
Are you visually impaired?
I do wear light colored clothes in the sun and I have stay covered at all times due to me having vitiligo and no ligaments in my skin so I can get sun burn easily.
These are really good tips for being outside with a visual impairment.I am visually impaired with limited vision and I use a white cane.I am highly sensitive to sunlight and sunshine,I do use sunglasses over my eyewear or glasses,I use a dark brimmed hat,I try to stay in a shaded area and have the warm sun behind me.I also use sunscreen on my face.I am only in the sunshine long enough to walk to the bus stops on my way to the mall.If I am in the sun too long it causes me to have headaches
I think that I might have spelled it wrong.I am legally blind with limited vision or I am visually impaired and I use a white cane.I am okay cooking and baking at home and I use several products in the kitchen that help me to cook meals and desserts at home.I do moisterize my skin,and it would be nice to put some skin products to get rid of my wrinkles on my face.I am 59 years old and I wear over tge glasses sun glasses because I am sensitive to sunlight etc
