Our Central Government Network brings together disability, diversity, human resources, and wellbeing professionals at managerial level in central Governments departments to:
- Debate current topics relevant to Civil Service’s disability and diversity strategies;
- Share innovative practice and facilitate solutions-focused discussions with colleagues from across the Civil Service in similar roles; and
- Establish a disability-related support and advice ‘hub’ of expertise among Business Disability Forum and Central Government professionals to continuously improve disability-related performance across the Civil Service.
Our meetings
Each roundtable meeting usually includes three items:
- A knowledge, legal, or research update from a Business Disability Forum’s Policy Manager on a topic relevant to disability and Central Government practice;
