The 2 main questions I get asked as a newly disabled driver 🚗 ♿️ check out my previous video to see the hand con
My Wheelchair Accessible Bathroom ♿️ 🚿 You’ve heard me bang on about this renovation for 2 years and it’s finally here! I’m not even being dramatic when I say this renovation has been life changing for me. I feel a bit exposed sharing my adaptations with the world… BUT I’m proud of the set up I have and how it works for me. I got this through my local council adaptations department which I’m super grateful for. There’s pros and cons going through these channels though which I can talk about in another video if that interests you. Oh and all I’ll say is being able to wash and dry after the toilet has been a right hit with all the pals 😎 😏 Insta would only let me share less than 90 seconds so I couldn’t go into massive detail but let me know if you have any q’s 🤓 💦 #AccessibleBathroom #Disability #WheelchairLife
[AD] if you’ve known or followed me for a while, you will know that in the past I’ve found travel to be stressful. Whether that’s because I’ve been refused, not safely clamped in or asked weird questions. That’s why I’m buzzin’ to be working with UberAccess in my latest post, telling you why I like it so much and also have a discount code for fellow disabled people in Leeds to try UberAccess or Assist yourself! Find my latest post on gemturner.com or use the link in my bio 🚗 . . . [video description: gem in wheelchair lining up to ramp and rolling slowly up with safety belts clipped to the chair]
“Gem, can you chat into the lens?” “I can chat anywhere me” 😆 Great filming at ITV in Leeds today, all will be revealed soon! 👀 . . . [gem chatting with a blue screen behind her and the camera screen is in the middle of the image recording her]
Good morning! Today is #PurpleTuesday, a call to action to improve the experience for disabled customers. People naturally think we’re “just accessible” now, but this isn’t really the case. So I thought I’d make a quick fun video. Find it in my stories or highlights! [video of gem driving chair into the distance of shopping centre, with words on screen saying “come shop with me”]
Jeans are something I always want to pull off but ironically struggle getting them off (and on) 😂 I find them restrictive when I’m sat down all day and no good when you need to * go *. However I have found the perfect pair from @boohoo which have stretchy waistbands and are really thin. Props to @sewfifty for cutting them to my size as always I now feel like those models on the ads where they casually have jeans and a T-shirt on... just need to practice reaching the pockets now 😂 . . . [image of my legs in jeans tapping for one second onto my footplate. I’m also wearing my super pink @adidas trainers too]
Thank you everyone for joining me on my first ever live, I talk about how I’m feeling in lockdown and what I think I’ll do next week. Keep safe everyone 💛 (I’m also trying to work out if I can download this and caption it! Bear with me)
Yesterday I tried to get a nice shot of the #LeedsDock sign, realised the bars were in shot, went to get closer then got scared I’d drop my phone and held the button for too long so just ended up with this boomerang instead 😂 . . . [quick video of scanning across Leeds Dock pavement with the sign in the distance and bars in front with buildings surrounding it]
I can now reveal the Gem Festive lights: ON 💡 [one second video of gem smiling in wheelchair with multicoloured lights on the back. A massive Christmas tree is behind in the city centre].
Double posting because sometimes it’s the little things that bring the most joy 😅 (of course I’ll post update about whether this makes incred hot choc) 🍫
Let’s have a reely cheesy Christmas everyone 🎄 @sewfifty and I have been a little busy this afternoon 💡 🔥 [to video describe it’s one of those zoom in to a decoration and zooms out to a fully decorated tree]
This is what my poor mum has to put up with on my drives 😂 (For those new here this is me using my wheelchair adapted car with hand controls... I’m currently still learning 👀)
Things I’ve done in my flat to make life easier as a wheelchair user part 2 🏡 #accessibility #homes #wheelchair #inclusion #AccessibleHome #hacks
Beep beep, beep beep YEAH ☀️ Because I’ll never get over being able to just press a button and get in the car, so I thought I’d make a jolly reel about it 🚗
Filmed this for the clock app but thought this would be helpful for other people feeling it too 💖 It took me until midday to feel human today. My joints hurt, I’m tired even though I’ve slept loads and it took me ages just to get into “work mode” but that’s okay. I still am having a lovely day - it’s just in my own pace. Shoutout to others feeling similar too 🫶🏼
