Hi I'm aidan from Kent. I'm blind and currently work for Wellcome Trust providing disability and access consultancy. I have previous experience as a Diversity and Inclusion advisor for Direct Line Group, and worked in various roles in the NHS, having trained on the NHS Graduate Management Training Scheme. I am Trustee of Sight for Surrey, which provides specialist services for visually-impaired, D/deaf and deafblind people in Surrey. I am the board lead for services for children and young people. I think this online community is truly a wonderful resource and I will try to be an active part of it. Thanks Scope.
