Manchester Disabled People’s Project Get Life-Savvy!-Sessions

18 Sep 2018 - 16:25 by michelle.foster

The Manchester Disabled People’s Project at the Greater Manchester Coalition of Disabled People empowers disabled adults of all ages who live in Manchester City to be in charge of their own lives and well-being. GMCDP

Through providing workshops, training sessions, and peer-support spaces, we want to boost individuals’ confidence and upskill disabled people, and collectively challenge disabling attitudes and physical and organisational barriers. The sessions can revolve around any topic of interest which is related to disabled people’s lives and wellbeing. Find out more about GMCDP events here: www.gmcdp.com/events

If you are not sure whether you identify as disabled, come along and have a chat with the team, or  via email, phone, text, voice mail, or postal service. You can also get in touch on facebook and twitter.
