Number of Participants

This is what the feedback from placements say:

Enjoyed the event, the information was helpful for disability or any other forms of disability, it was easy to understand.

The food was good.
It was absolutely amazing, lots of people came and networked.

It’s a good partnership with CWTC and Scope to help people in the community who are vulnerable, have illness or health related disability.
