| Aspiring Advocates & Career Changers | You are passionate about social justice but lack the formal qualifications. You might be a support worker, a charity volunteer, or someone looking to pivot into a meaningful career in the non-profit or public sector, seeking the foundational knowledge to make your advocacy more effective. |
| Health & Social Care Professionals | You work on the front lines—in the NHS, local authorities, or private care. With over 14.6 million disabled people in the UK, and women making up a higher proportion of those with chronic illness, you need a deep understanding of the intersectional barriers your service users face to provide truly person-centred support. |
| HR, Policy & Public Sector Staff | You are responsible for shaping inclusive workplaces and policies. You recognise that with a gender pay gap that persists and a disability employment gap of 28.6 percentage points, organisations need informed leaders who can design and implement strategies that tackle these systemic inequalities head-on. |
