Learning Disability Week Bed Push Went really well

We met up outside the BBC Radio Station in Coventry to do our bed push in aid of people with learning disabilities having the rights to stay up/out late. We all wore Stay Up Late T-shirts which were sent to us by Heavy Load who started the campaign for Stay Up Late. The media coverage was Central vision, The BBC, Telegraph and Michelle Tennison who is a freelance photographer. We pushed the bed up through the City Centre and along the way we were getting people to sign our petition and giving out leaflets and badges we stopped by Lady Godiva statue and went round speaking to the public to get their support. We then made our way to the Coventry City Council House to meet up with councillors to hand in the report and the petitions we also gave them T-shirts. The report had 10 case studies of people with learning disabilities not being able stay up/out late. Dave Musson has put a story about heavy Load & us on the daily dust. http://bit.ly/WlU1N
