Disability Equality and Awareness
Background:
- HearFirst has been offering Disability Equality and Awareness Training since 2003.
- Most of our tutors are deaf or disabled themselves and have a real depth of knowledge, understanding and a good sense of humour too! They can offer a true insight and understanding which helps change hearts and minds and behaviours.
- Training includes information about the Equality Act 2010.
- This training is mandatory in many organisations. We understand that ‘buy in’ from participants is necessary to their engagement and your outcomes.
- Our training includes information about employees’ rights if they are disabled now or have been in the past as well as their responsibilities.
- We always offer an interesting blend of theory and fun interaction to ensure everyone is able to participate, enjoy and ‘do’ on all courses.
