Admins of disability groups can sometimes hinder progress:
An admin declined my post because they misunderstood the flexibility I was asking. I'm asking driving instructors to consider rearranging lessons, I don't understand what they're talking about in regards to half a day lost, double instructors nor do I understand why they are assuming that instructors should only take on motability scheme clients. What irks me more however is how they've declined a whole post based on a skewed and biased perspective based on their misunderstanding of my post. This will lead to more struggles instead of actioning positive change. If we are to increase accessibility and eradicate ableism we need to have people who can be more flexible around chronic pain disabilities. They are still being paid for the same lesson just on an alternative date via rearranging, especially if given notice on the morning it's changed OR allowing disabled people to book the lessons on the same day to ensure ability to drive.
