Welcome to Disabled by Society
These days, it seems every organisation and their competitor are claiming to be all singing, all dancing inclusive. Unfortunately, when we do a little digging we realise that the singing is out of tune and that the dancing is actually more of a sidestep.
Organisations fail to represent Disability. They fail to remove the disabling, ableist, and inaccessible barriers. They are failing to attract, gain, develop, and retain Disabled candidates, clients, colleagues, and customers. Meaning they are excluding 1.7 billion people with a global spending power of $13 trillion.
How I Can Help

I provide an honest no bull-rhino approach to creating anti-ableist Cultures that foster belonging for Disabled People. Recruitment, Branding and Marketing that is accessible, inclusive and representative. I partner with organisations to identify and rectify the barriers disabling candidates, colleagues, customers, and clients. Preventing them from being Disabled by your organisation.
