Our spokespeople and experts
We have expert spokespeople available on a range of disability and business-related subjects. We use the term “disability” to cover mental health and other long term (health) conditions that would be covered by the scope of the Equality Act 2010 as well as physical and sensory impairments and neurodiverse conditions. Our spokespeople can give interviews and provide informed written opinion or comment. We focus on providing practical, well-evidenced advice based on the experiences of our Members and Partners and our in-depth policy and research work.
