Don't Let Your Disabilty Stop You! - Black Country Blokes Podcast Appearance with Ceri Davies

Posted 24/10/2022

I appeared on the Black Country Blokes Podcast to discuss how not to let my disability stop me from achieving my dreams.

Hi everybody! I'm campaigning with my fellow disability rights campaigners and I am part of the movement which is Social Care Futures. Here are the key enquiry outcome suggestions:

 

  • Promote a new story of change to inspire the wider public to support the future we seek
  • Underpin this story with examples of the approaches that exemplify this future and working with others to grow and to spread them
  • Challenge and change the present through action at all levels to close the gap between the positive ambition of the Care Act 2014 and reality on the ground
  • Develop the practical solutions to move us towards our vision, navigated by people whose experience and insight comes from drawing on care and support to live their lives
  • Build a social movement for change

 

We are all working hard to make these a reality in adult social care.

 

I am also a member of IMPACT, which is improving adult care together. This is the new research centre. The professional in charge is Jon Glasby, please see below the link:
