About this session:

An event to bring together people from diverse backgrounds to talk about disability and celebrate talent and achievement in a safe space, reducing taboo and stereotypes and serving to foster positive attitudes.

Disabled people can be subjected to violence and abuse, because of religion or beliefs and the prevalence may be different for people within different religious groups. 

This event will spotlight people with lived experience of disability to develop a spirit of empathy and understanding from people who have both the same and different backgrounds.   

The event will include information about disability hate crime, accessibility and why we should be accessible, the Human Rights model of disability, and celebrating cultures. There will also be a community celebration and shared food.

At Caritas, we believe that everyone should have opportunity to participate in all activities. This includes people who use our services, employees and volunteers. 

Together we will work alongside individuals to find inclusive ways of working that suit them best.  We seek to welcome, integrate, and support the participation of all people by making our projects accessible.  If you face barriers because of your physical, mental and emotional, learning, sensory and/or communications needs, please let us know.
