📢Just days to go until we welcome people from across Scotland & Europe for the #EuropeinAction2024 Conference in Glasgow.

Enable, together with Inclusion Europe, will call for action on learning disability rights for + 20million people.

As CEO Charlie McMillan of Scottish Commission for People with Learning Disabilities says

'If you read one thing today, please read this. The headline alone is shocking enough.'

Powerful article from BBC Scotland News today

'Above all, Laughing Boy forcefully reminds us that those with learning (or other) disabilities are not a homogenous “problem” to be solved, or more likely shelved, but individuals that any civilised society should respect and make provision for'.

Europe in Action conference week from now!
I've never been calmer.

350+ participants, from all corners of the world
About 2x typical numbers in my time doing the conferences with Inclusion Europe.

Enable doing amazing job organising the event.
Thank you, I can't wait.

This is well worth a read at SSF we regularly talk about the untapped talent within communities and those facing barriers.
Some of our most impactful work has been driven by people who bring lived experience of inequality and now work or volunteer with us to change that.

Interesting read from my perspective on a number of levels…..good to see ⁦EY Foundation⁩ leading on this ⁦Edel Harris OBE (She/Her)⁩ amp-theguardian-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/amp.thegua…
