Toward the latter end of Disability Pride Month (July), I found myself fielding questions about the unique ways disability inclusion benefits a workplace. Here are some of the benefits I discussed...and of course there are many more. ⁠ Inclusion is powerful. It's time we acknowledge the many ways bringing in (and listening to) voices of all backgrounds can propel our productivity, wellbeing, and sense of connection at work. And that's exactly why I do what I do. ⁠ ⁠ #DisabilityInclusion #InclusiveWorkplaces #DiversityEquityInclusion

Every child, regardless of ability, deserves a future filled with excitement and brilliance. Let us not forget our roots by valuing our older generations and those living with disabilities. Enhancing their lives enriches our society as a whole. Embracing diversity and promoting inclusivity strengthens the foundation of our community. Together, we can turn our compassion into action, ensuring a dignified and fulfilling life for all. Disability is not a limitation but a different perspective on life. By fostering an environment of support and understanding, we pave the way for a brighter, more inclusive future. Let's commit to making this vision a reality. Every step towards inclusivity is a step towards a better world for everyone. Your small actions today can create significant impacts for tomorrow. #InclusivityMatters #SupportAndEmpower #FutureForAll #EmbraceDiversity #CompassionInAction 

Breaking Down Barriers: In our commitment to fostering disability inclusion, we recognise terminology can be a stumbling block for many employers. That's why we're launching a new series, 'Word of the Week', to demystify key terms. This week, we delve into the world of 'Social Model.' Image description: A pink background image displaying text that defines the "Social Model". The text explains this model as viewing the world of disability as one where societal barriers, such as inaccessible buildings or negative attitudes, cause disability rather than individual physical conditions. #DisabilityInclusion #WordOfTheWeek #BreakingBarriers

As part of this, we participate in the annual survey, publicly disclosing our data to promote greater accessibility for people with disabilities.
