Disability Inclusion Training

Why It Matters

Disability inclusion isn’t about “doing the right thing.” It’s about creating environments where disabled people can contribute, lead, and thrive — without barriers, stigma, or silence.

At Calling All Minds, our Disability Inclusion Training helps teams build practical awareness, confidence, and capacity to make inclusion part of daily culture — not just policy.

What Makes Our Approach Different

We centre the voices of disabled people. Our training isn’t theoretical — it’s grounded in lived experience, current legislation, and workplace realities. Whether you’re a line manager, HR partner, or leadership team, we give you the tools to act with insight and integrity.

What We Cover

Every session is tailored to the sector and team — but core topics include:

• Models of disability: medical, social, and human rights-based
• The Equality Act and workplace duties
• Understanding visible and non-visible disabilities
• The language of inclusion: respectful, person-centred, evolving
• Removing physical, procedural, and cultural barriers
• Making adjustments meaningful — not just minimal
• Disability and intersectionality (race, gender, class, etc.)
• Challenging ableism, bias, and common myths
• How to listen, ask, and act — with empathy and confidence
