Alternative Interpretation, written by a community member with lived experience of disability, D/deafness and/or neurodivergence, as part of the Curating for Change project: “Look how much you can experience when you’re on a train travelling through the countryside. I wouldn’t even be able to walk through and see one of those fields if I was outside, because it’s just not possible for me to walk that far. But on the train, I can see that field, then the next, then the next. And then after that we might go along the coast, and it’s almost like I’m walking along the coast path! And then the hills, and maybe over a river and across a bridge. All that in maybe an hour's trip. I could never see all that otherwise!”
