Disabled people shouldn't only be consulted after decisions have already been made. I've written an open letter about accessibility, inclusion and why lived experience should help shape policy from the beginning. #Disability #Accessibility #Journalism

A cream-coloured “About Alisha” graphic showing a centered title with a formal serif font. It includes a black-and-white photo of Alisha in her wedding veil, smiling. The text shares that she’s been bedridden with ME for nearly 10 years and now advocates for chronic illness, disability rights, and mental health. Her website and social handle appear in the corner.

Living with ME. Speaking for those who can’t. Honest stories, quiet strength, and fierce advocacy from the same four walls. 💙

Illustration of a sad woman holding a smiling mask in front of her face. A tear rolls down her cheek, revealing her true emotion. Above her, the text reads: “ME sufferers don’t pretend they are sick, we pretend we are well...” on a pink background.

Hi Im Alisha a professional nap-taker and dog lover. Living with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis has taught me to appreciate the little things in life (like a good heating pad & a comfortable pair of stretchy pants). I navigate the ups and downs of chronic illness with humour, sarcasm & self-deprecation 🫶
