Hi all. I'm thrilled to have found this site and look forward to your support and getting to know you and more about disabilities.
I have disabilities (mostly hidden) and so does my 12 year old daughter.

I am in training foe Mt new job which revolves around helping people with disabilities find employment.

I'm really passionate about being treated fairly and that people with disabilities are given the same life chances as anyone else. 

Thank you for allowing me to join.
Cheryl

    Congratulations on the new job, that sounds super. Employment can be such a challenge for many people, so if you will be doing a job that supports disabled people into work then brilliant. I wish you all the best.
