The Disability Resource Centre Competitors

We’re Scope, the UK's leading disability equality charity, creating equal futures with disabled people. We campaign to transform attitudes to disability. We bring support services to disabled households and communities. We tackle injustice and inspire action. Together we dare the world, and employers, to think differently about disability. There are 16 million disabled people in the UK. And we want our potential to be recognised. We need a transformation in attitudes. We must address the extra costs we face. And we need to be recognised for the value we bring to the workplace. You can can find out more about our charity's mission in our 'An Equal Future' strategy on our website: scope.org.uk/about-us/an-equal-future-strategy If your organisation is interested in supporting our work, reach out to us at: partnerships@scope.org.uk

We’re the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB), one of the UK’s leading sight loss charities and the largest community of blind and partially sighted people. We recognise everyone’s unique experience of sight loss and offer help and support for blind and partially sighted people – this can be anything from practical and emotional support, campaigning for more accessible transport, reading services and the products we offer in our online shop. We’re a catalyst for change – inspiring people with sight loss to transform their own personal experience, their community and, ultimately, society as a whole. Our focus is on giving them the help, support and tools they need to realise their aspirations. Everyday 250 people begin to lose their sight; RNIB has a crucial role to play in creating a world where there are no barriers to people with sight loss. We want society, communities and individuals to see differently about sight loss. This page is monitored Monday-Friday 9am-5pm.

We are Leonard Cheshire - supporting individuals to live, learn and work as independently as they choose, whatever their ability. Led by people with experience of disability, we are at the heart of local life – opening doors to opportunity, choice and support . Like our founder, we believe that diversity creates a world of possibility. Through pioneering research and innovation we’re building a fairer, more inclusive society. One that recognises the positive contributions we all make, and where we are all proud to play our part. Leading by example, we do everything humanly possible to empower people to live their lives as freely and as fully as they choose.
