Independent Visiting:

-

I saw my young person for the last time before Christmas today, and it was such a lovely way to wrap up the year. We went out for a coffee, exchanged presents, and had a really good catch-up. They’re doing so well, and I honestly couldn’t be prouder of them.

Moments like this are exactly why I love what I do. It’s a real privilege to be part of someone’s journey — even in small, everyday ways. This kind of work can be challenging at times, but it’s also deeply rewarding, and more people should definitely consider it. It's meaningful work and I'm so happy to have this opportunity.

We were also helped today by a wonderful lady called Angela at the food place, and we were so grateful for her kindness. It was lovely catching up and hearing all about my young person’s adventures — those moments mean so much.

With Christmas Eve tomorrow, I’m feeling full of festive cheer, gratitude, and pride.

Wishing everyone a truly wonderful Christmas.

Sarah Wingfield ❤️

Butterfly world Stockton and abused:

💔 Heartbroken After Today’s Experience at Butterfly World 💔 By Sarah Wingfield — Independent Disability Advocate Today should have been a simple, gentle outing. Instead, it turned into one of the most humiliating and distressing experiences I’ve had in a long time. We visited Butterfly World in Stockton-on-Tees, and while we were inside for roughly forty minutes, Bud stayed in the car. It was cool, the windows were open, the car was in the shade, and he had water. He was absolutely fine. But what wasn’t fine was how we were treated. An employee named India approached us in a way that was shockingly unprofessional, laughing, openly speaking about us to others, and accusing us of animal cruelty. Her behaviour triggered an autistic meltdown in public — not because we had done anything wrong, but because of the hostile, mocking way the situation was handled. Instead of assessing the situation properly, instead of placing a hand inside the car to feel the cool air, instead of speaking res...

Fighting for Community: Why The Aviator Matters More Than Ever Something powerful happens when people come together — when a space opens its doors to everyone, no matter their background, ability, or walk of life. That’s what The Aviator Sports & Live Lounge has done for our town. And now, it’s under threat. For years, The Aviator has been more than just a venue. It’s been a beating heart in Newton Aycliffe. A place for celebration, connection, live music, family events, sports, comfort food, and spontaneous laughter with strangers who become friends. It’s one of the rare spaces that makes you feel like you belong — and in a world that can feel so divided and isolating, that’s priceless. As a disabled woman, I’ve often found public spaces either inaccessible or unwelcoming. But not The Aviator. It’s one of the few places where I’ve never had to fight to be included. The staff have always been kind, attentive, and respectful. I can just be. That shouldn’t be rare — but sadly, it is....

Let the truth free:

I'm done being scared and bullied and hiding. I set the truth free and if I get harmed and arrested for doing so, so be it. I refuse to be harmed or suffer anymore, I can't cope. I've harmed no one at any time and asking for an apology and blogging about my mistreatment doesn't justify false allegations. This has been breaking me. I need to set the truth free so my bullies have no more control. I'm sorry I wish I was stronger. I did my best.
