Primary School Workshops
Whether we journey together through our series of educational modules, or deliver one-off workshops, students are supported to develop a deeper understanding of theories of disability and inclusion.
Students will reflect on their attitudes and biases, and to develop practical skills to support people with disability and their peers throughout school and in the wider world.
The educational content is delivered by expert young leaders.
We engage young adult facilitators, passionate about disability inclusion and education, and we equip them with the knowledge and skills to educate on the topics that matter most to your school community and students.

Our 5-part series builds on ‘Own Your Difference’ and dives into what it truly means to be inclusive through the lens of disability. Our modules are built on 10+ years of hands-on experience in the disability sector.
