See Me Rolling: On Disability, Equality and Ten-Point Turns

Description: "In this heartfelt, thought-provoking and often hilarious book, Lottie Jackson reflects on her experiences of living with disability: from the pitfalls of going shopping on a mobility scooter, and the headache of defining oneself on a tick-box form, to a slapstick scuffle with the so-called 'easy-pull' tights aid, and the intense pleasure of finally swapping a hospital gown for a slinky dress. She captivatingly expresses the raw vulnerabilities, injustices and untold joys of disability, as well as the bizarre everyday occurrences that able-bodied people usually don't experience. In this dazzling book, Lottie powerfully explores the ways in which we undervalue and underrepresent disabled people in our society. And she reveals why we must strive for change and redefine what it means to be disabled in every facet of life."--
