Is Scope a pan disability charity, & if it is, shouldn't this be reflected in this community?

    Hi Rosie, I think this graphic explains perfectly what equality and equity mean but I can't reproduce the image on its own - perhaps it should be visible on the home page.

    We've had several discussions about the forum but they seem to fade away after not much agreement..

    (Bearing in mind I have no idea what in particular is being referred to, I speak generally here.)

    For what it's worth, I think inclusion is more a journey, an ideal, rather than something that is actually achieved. It is in constant flux, as its definition is frequently changing - especially when new members join. I liken it to a yoga pose, in that the purpose of the yoga pose is trying to achieve the pose - rather than perfecting the pose. So bearing this is mind, yoga can be for everyone. Inclusion is just that - it is meant for everyone.

    To me, inclusion does not translate into everyone agreeing and getting along and liking each other. Rather, that can be the whole point of inclusion - that we don't all get along - and accept that imperfect is okay.
