Following the Ministry of Equality’s press release on Friday the 20th of January regarding the enactment of sections 13 & 14 of the Disability Act, the GFSB is keen to promote the free presentation for businesses by the Ministry of Equality with Keynote Speaker Ian Streets from About Access UK.
The Disability Act 2017
The Bill for the Disability Act 2017 (Ange’s Law) Press Release 14th July 2017
The Ministry of Equality will be undertaking a series of awareness campaigns in order to help break down some barriers people with disabilities face on a daily basis.
This will include an open day event at the end of this month to allow people from the private sector to be better informed on their obligations, as well as learning how to best welcome people with disabilities into their premises.
The GFSB will be actively engaging with its members to offer support and guidance and to promote events relating to this enactment of sections 13 & 14 to ensure the message is distilled throughout the business community.
