Details

The National Disability Strategy sets out the government鈥檚 vision to improve the everyday lives of disabled people. We want to ensure that disability is not a barrier to people living full, independent lives where they can reach their full potential.

The strategy has been developed with the input of more than 14,000 disabled people, as well as disability organisations, businesses, policy experts and many others.

In this publication, departments and agencies in every corner of government set out how they will help bring about practical and lasting change to disabled people鈥檚 lives.

Part 1聽sets out immediate commitments we will make to improve every part of a disabled person鈥檚 day.

Part 2聽sets out changes to how we will work with and for disabled people into the future, putting disabled people at the heart of government policy-making and service delivery.

Part 3聽summarises the actions each government department will take, with ministerial champions setting out their personal commitment to the strategy.
