Call for submissions disability and the built environment
The Women and Equalities Select Committee chaired by Maria Miller recently launched a disability and the built environment enquiry. Select committees have quite a say in Government legislation and can and do hold Government ministers to account.
They are seeking submissions from interested organisations and people.
One area that is relevant to everyone is the degree of local involvement in decision making.
If this is of interest and you would like guidance on making a 'submission' the Select Committe's web site is here bit.ly/2d0rbYH

Tips on passwords from Future Learn
Before discussing password tips, I'd like to give a wholehearted recommendation to Future Learn.
They provide a wide range of well presented short courses from recognised universities. Have a look and I'm sure you'll find something of interest.
This is a link to the Future Learn blog post about creating memorable but difficult to crack passwords bit.ly/2d2t0pn. They also have a course covering several key aspects of security
Part of their advice is to use a sentence to help you remember a password.
For example: 'good advice - worth noting' might become the password goad-wono.
An early form of encryption, used by spies and agents all over the world, was to use a book or poem. Numbers would refer to the page, line and number of words into the line. So for example using the book Under a Blood Red Sky by Kate Furnival the code 25992 would be the word 'sometimes'. The only way you could break this code is if you knew and had a copy of the book.
You can simplify and use this encryption code to help remember passwords.
So from the same book, Thenightmareclose would be encoded as 11 41 71
