One of the biggest issues i have with #PurpleTuesday is that it effectively says people with disabilities only matter if you can attach a financial or economic value to them.

That we reduce everyone to a pound sign, rather than just making the world work for all seems wrong to me.

This #PurpleTuesday, we are proud to reaffirm our commitment to making Colchester Museums accessible to everyone. We believe that everyone should be able to enjoy the rich history and culture our museums offer.
Colchester Castle, a historic stone building with a rugged, weathered exterior, likely a castle or medieval structure, stands beneath a bright blue sky. The building features arched windows with leaded panes and a prominent arched entrance. A small round tower on the left, partially overgrown with greenery, hints at the building's age and past fortifications. A long, wooden-railed walkway leads directly to the entrance, creating a sense of approach and inviting visitors to explore. The surrounding grounds are landscaped with well-kept green lawns and trees, adding a contrast between the building’s ancient stonework and the vibrant, clear day.

This is one of those ‘pinch me’ moments 🥺

Coordinating the illumination of these iconic Northeastern landmarks for #PurpleTuesday and wandering around the region tonight knowing ‘I did that’ is a very cool feeling 💜

Understand. Support. Include. 💜

This #WorldBipolarDay, we’re calling on businesses to educate their teams and foster supportive environments for neurodivergent customers and staff.

 #WorldBipolarDay #BipolarAwareness #PurpleTuesday #InclusiveCulture
The headline reads "Understanding Bipolar Disorder Together." The text explains that Bipolar is a mental health condition characterized by periods of Mania (highs) and Depression (lows), affecting up to 5% of people worldwide. A simple icon in the bottom right shows two figures, one bowed over and one with arms raised, representing the "lows and highs" of the condition. The Purple Tuesday logo is in the bottom left.

This year, for disability history month, we honour the value of disabled lives by celebrating historical innovations like the first typewriter, invented for a blind woman. Accessibility is not only transformative but essential for innovation.

#DisabilityHistoryMonth #Accessibility #PurpleTuesday
A vintage purple typewriter sits on a wooden surface. Below it, a caption reads: “Did you know? The first known typewriter (ancestor to the modern keyboard) was invented in 1808 by Pellegrino Turri to help his blind friend, Countess Carolina Fantoni, write legibly and independently.” At the bottom is the Purple Tuesday logo and tagline: “Accessibility Everyday, Everywhere for Everyone.”

I was surprised to learn the Purple Pound is now worth a whopping £446bn in the UK! Accessible services are good for people and good for business.

Our #TheHiddenJourney survey shows access barriers cause so much frustration, while inclusive retail experiences earn trust and loyalty
