Disability Working Group at Enfield Borough Council

Our aim is to improve working life for people affected by disability at the council. The group is open to anybody with a disability or who is affected by disability. Our view is that everyone is affected by disability in some way, so all staff are welcome.

Our key aims include:

• Increase awareness about the challenges facing staff affected by disability
• Represent disabled staff in the review of council buildings and campaign for an audit of disability access
• Ensure HR policies reflect a disabled person's view, and that all staff who need it have access to funding for reasonable adjustments
• Act as a network of support and hold meetings where people can share their challenges, and gain support and advice from people with similar experiences
