EDUCATION

Promoting awareness.

Disability Lectures…

We have formed ties with a number of universities throughout the UK including Birmingham and Exeter to bring topics to life using Nath’s personal experiences ranging from the social services system to Occupational Therapy. Below are just some examples of how his personal experiences can help broaden knowledge.

Social Work – Throughout Nath’s life, he has had many dealings with social workers and the system hence brings a wealth of experience both positive and negative to share with Social Work students. In particular, he discusses the struggles that social workers may face when attempting to satisfy the clients wishes whilst being constrained by the system.

Images of Disability – Nath has worked with many professionals ranging from Teaching Assistants to Physiotherapists and it is this experience that he shares with students, in particular, how the ‘person-centred’ approach is applied in reality and not necessarily focused around the individual.

Areas Covered…

We travel the length and breadth of the UK delivering our services, however, we do ask that travel and accommodation expenses are covered.

We asked Nath to come in and talk to our Year 9 students as part of our PSHE programme looking at discrimination and prejudice. I wasn't sure how the students would react but they were really gripped by his presentation. Many of them were struck by the things they had in common - such as a liking of the Xbox - but also inspired by how much Nath has achieved despite the extra obstacles he has had to overcome.
I will definitely be inviting Nath back next year.
