Social Model of Disability

Cost: Free

This webinar is looking at the Social Model of Disability.  The Social Model of Disability encourages us to explore disability not as an individual impairment but as a product of societal structures, attitudes, and practices.

We will cover the following:

• The difference between the medical model and the social model of disability. 

• The use of appropriate language to be used when discussing disabled people. 

• How you can support disabled staff, colleagues, customers and clients.

• Reasonable adjustments, what are they, how can they be implemented and the benefits this can have not only to the individual but also your business. 

• How to ensure that your recruitment process is fully inclusive.
