Special activities running over winter: GMCDP are excited to announce our continued online members coffee workshops! Come and meet to have a catch up and see what we have been doing, fill us in on what you have been doing, and advise us on what you'd like to see in any future workshops we will be holding. Grab a brew and get ready to be engaged in some interesting and exciting discussions related to disabled people and the extra barriers that COVID-19 has brought for us all.

These sessions are very informal so full attendence is not necessary. You can even just drop by to say hello if you like!

Please let us know about your access requirements, we will do our upmost to deliver them digitally.

There are also going to be more formal sessions which will be shaped by the members who attend these coffee meetings. These sessions are still to be confirmed so please keep an eye on our website for further details.
