DAMN! - Disability Accessible Music Now! @DisabledByMusic Oct 24

More venues & events are only accepting Nimbus access card as proof of disability.

We're calling on the government to stop this by forcing these events to accept government letters or official medical proof which you can get for free.

Please sign it!

Apologies for being quiet and absent. I've spent most of the last four weeks either in A&E or in Doctor's appointments as I've been having some worsening symptoms. I have no idea when they will be resolved. I will get back on the DAMN! bandwagon when I can but I can't right now.

Not surprised. This condescending response by Nimbus is standard from them.

They've accused me of being wrong and spreading misinformation but once I hold the mirror up to them and give them the evidence they went silent.

Nice to see youprioritise the media instead of Disabled people who forced the change from Merlin but again not attending meetings with disabled people is standard behaviour from Nimbus.

More gigs & festivals are using the @AccessCard as the only accepted form of proof of disability to get reasonable adjustments. Organisers say it helps them plan access provisions easier.

Since when was the @AccessCard set up to help organisers instead of Disabled people.
