    A Vision for an Inclusive Scotland

    By admin | Written Evidence | Comments are Closed | 29 August, 2015 | 0

    Our 2014 publication “A Vision for an Inclusive Scotland” was created to serve as a rallying call for politicians and policy makers to heed the views of disabled people. Released shortly before the Referendum on Scottish Independence, it’s goal was to form part of the debate to follow the result (whichever way it went) on Scotland’s future, and to go on to inform manifestos and campaigns for the Westminster election in 2015, and beyond to the Holyrood elections in 2016.
