What happens in Disability Awareness Week (15-22 September)?

Let’s all take action! All churches are invited to reach out and meet with disabled people in their community in Disability Awareness Week. This could be through organised church events or through individuals inviting a disabled person they know to meet for a coffee.

UCB radio and Through the Roof (TTR) are making sure disabled Christians’ voices are heard. On UCB1’s Talking Point programme, 9am–1pm from 16-20 Sept, each day, one disabled person will share about their lived experience of disability in church and society.

 

TTR will also be sharing videos, tips and insights each day during the week about the ABC of church disability inclusion on social media @TTRChangesLives. Please ‘like’ and share!
