👋 Hello Canadian 🇨🇦 Fediverse
Needing 🦽 Advice Please 👋

I would very much appreciate recommendations for companies/sources for a manual wheelchair for a disabled senior. ♿
The person using it is Not capable of maneuvering an electric one -and they are Not allowed for use at the retirement home-and one arm is too weak to push himself using a manual wheelchair, so it's up to me, a senior to assist, therefore, it needs to be lightweight but sturdy enough for going over curbs and sidewalks, along country roads without a sidewalk, and to be safely anchored to a bus floor. (I do not want a 'transport' wheelchair --too flimsy)
Thanks for your guidance.🙂

Boosts welcomed

So, in reading the notes for the latest Mona update, which came out last week, I seem to be having trouble understanding what they mean by choosing list style to make the tab bar easily navigable. Does anyone have any ideas on this? My tab bar seems to be jumping around a little bit. #Accessability #a11y @MonaApp

Hier eines der @c3tactile Schilder vom #39c3 die in der #Freakshow erwähnt wurden.

Die gestickten Kartenpläne und alle Brailleschilder sind unglaublich wichtige Tools, die unsere #accessability auf #Chaos Events erhöhen. 🚀

Danke an alle die mitgeholfen haben! 👏

PSA: if all you ever post is screenshots of other people's viral posts, but you omit the Alt-text, and you cannot be bothered to edit your post to add Alt-text even after other people comment to supply the Alt-text, then you're an absolute shit-heel and deserve to be blocked.

Fascinating read about how even wanting to utilise the fundamental html APIs can cause accessibility issues. My inner nerd feels I need popcorn.

I know how to get the long-term sick and disabled people back to work

The government’s proposed ‘ruthless’ cuts to the welfare payments won’t fix our broken benefits system, says disability rights campaigner Kamran Mallick – instead, some targeted investments would actually pay dividends

Same with Google Docs and other apps.

Use the built-in styles for headings.

Using the heading styles has several benefits:

• That text is formatted like a heading.

• Heading tagged for screen readers.

• Auto-included in table of contents.
