Social Care Leaders Invite You To Join The Discussion

Social care leaders come together in an online round table discussion that’s not to be missed.

Participants will be discussing the need to drive better awareness, understanding, knowledge and best in class practice for disabled people, both as people the sector supports and as employees in our teams.

When 22% of people in the UK have a disability and the social care sector faces increasing workforce pressure, recruiting and supporting disabled colleagues is more important than ever.
