Children with disabilities have a voice and a future! It’s up to all of us to make sure we’re doing our best to support every child, regardless of ability. Ask yourself, how will you help to improve the life of someone else? We all have the power to do it! ❤️💙 #LucyTakesOver

There are 150 million young 🧒 with #disabilities in the 🌎. All too often they are excluded and isolated. I want to help all of them access the same opportunities and experiences I have had. We cannot be forgotten! Together, I know we can do it! Will you join me? #LucyTakesOver

People with disabilities are dedicated, hard-working and compassionate. All of these qualities would make your workplace better and more productive!📈 We should be given equal opportunity to join the industry we’re passionate about! #LucyTakesOver

Sports = one way to #include, but people with disabilities have the opportunity to be productive society members. As a Champion for @_GenUnlimited, I know it's crucial that job skills training and places of work include people with disabilities. We deserve no less. #LucyTakesOver
