Description

Throughout November and December, UWE Bristol Library is hosting Disability History Month book giveaways, to raise awareness about disability history, issues surrounding stigma, and people's experiences of living with a disability.

We'll be hiding the giveaway books around our campuses, and we'll be posting location clues on our Instagram Stories. If you find a book, it's yours to keep.

This book giveaway features I Am Not a Label: 34 disabled artists, thinkers, athletes and activists from past and present by Cerrie Burnell.

This gorgeous illustrated biographical anthology explores the extremes of lived experience and challenges the traditional preconceptions of disability and mental health. Get ready to feel inspired!
