DVLA rigmarole:

-

Wow, the DVLA don't 'alf make it difficult for disabled people to renew a provisional license!


I'm trying to take the steps forward to sort out transportation for myself so I can attend college easier and trade at market stall events.


I'm waiting for the form in the post now and I need to send my Decree Absolute to them as well as proof of identity etc.


Slow process but the sooner I get this done the sooner I can either apply for the Wheels 2 Work County Durham scheme and get a scooter to study for college and for transportation at £35/week or try and get a motability car in which my pip would be deducted from.


Hopefully I'll get this all sorted as soon as possible, it's a shame that I can't just email my Decree Absolute with a photograph of my ID and old provisional to get a new one.


Considering all the technological advances we have to date and the fact that court documents like my Decree Absolute is released from the court in digital format, you'd think it would make sense.


All they'd need is a live video short of yourself stating your name as additional proof and then an assessor could take your payment and send the license.


I'd have overhauled this system a long time ago had I been in charge and it would be so much easier for ALL to navigate and renew licenses.


Anyways enough of my ranting about DVLA lol, wish me luck because this is a HUGE step for me in the right direction!

I'm done with Bishop Auckland college:

I got a very unprofessional email (linkedin message) today after promoting the college and resharing several courses I shared this: A colleague had been informed that due to numbers the policing course can't go ahead. (My formal complaint via email is at the bottom of this blog post) So I simply shared a list of their nutritional courses (also helpful) and added if anyone was interested in the level three policing course to enroll asap (based on the information provided we didn't want to lose the course) I received this: I still haven't heard anything official from the college yet and I'm not happy with being told I'm not allowed to share courses to enrol. But to be honest the accusations of misinformation irk me to my core especially without any official correction or context. So I've blocked Adam on LinkedIn and I'm done with Bishop Auckland College now. I am removing myself SO FAST from everyone and everywhere that chooses disrespect over thoughtfulness. ...

Ramside Hall and Northern Housing Consortium:

-

I am excited to say that the event at Ramside Hall went spectacularly well, I attended with my best friend Corin and we had such a lovely time. I gave a wonderful speech as to how Northern Housing Consortium has helped me spectacularly with a bursary for my start up business www.magnoliaphotography.co.uk and I happily share the quoted speech I gave below:  " As a start-up business, I initially struggled to  meet the demands of contractual work. Creating art by finger painting on my phone screen was time-consuming, imprecise, and physically challenging. This made it difficult to meet my clients' expectations for detail and speed. Living with chronic pain and disabilities only added to these difficulties. When I learned through Livin Futures that Northern Housing Consortium was offering a start-up bursary, I immediately applied for a drawing tablet, hoping it could change the way I work. Receiving the bursary has been truly transformative. With my new drawing tablet, I can now ...

Cheers 😔 see: https://pgpandspd.blogspot.com/2024/06/hacked-stickers-betrayal-and-pride.html I got off the phone to Paul Howarth yesterday, whilst I'm with my son in public in a cafe, the ADM meet didn't go ahead, but we stayed anyway and my son encouraged me to merely enquire about the article and why my image was not printed, Paul stated it was a space issue but I explained he'd spliced images before and how much would it cost to get the photo in the paper so I can feel positively represented by my home town as a Newtonian since his only reason was the article was FREE, anyway he got rude and abruptly stated he does a LOT for ADM and it's ALL FREE and that he feels I'm being REALLY UNFAIR and hung u...
