Despite the progress made by disability rights movements\, many systems continue to marginalise disabled individuals through barriers\, stereotypes\, and exclusionary practices. \nThis essential webinar explores what ableism looks like in modern society and how it impacts disabled people across health\, education\, employment\, and social care. Participants will gain insight into how ableist assumptions shape language\, policy\, and practice—and what can be done to challenge them. \nCentred around lived experience\, legal frameworks and inclusive design principles\, this session will empower professionals to move beyond tokenism and create truly accessible\, anti-ableist environments. \nIdeal for: \n\nHR and workplace inclusion leads\nSocial care and education professionals\nEquality\, diversity and inclusion officers\nHealth and mental health practitioners\nPolicy makers and commissioners\nYouth workers\, community organisers and support services\nAnyone working with or supporting disabled people\n\nKey Takeaways: \n\nDefining ableism and recognising its structural\, institutional and interpersonal forms\nUnderstanding the social model of disability and how it differs from the medical model\nExploring microaggressions\, assumptions and language that perpetuate exclusion\nIdentifying how systems\, policies and environments reinforce ableist norms\nApplying inclusive\, anti-ableist approaches in service design and delivery\n\nAdditional Benefits: \n\nChallenge unconscious bias and shift from ‘awareness’ to meaningful inclusion\nLearn from the lived experiences of disabled professionals and advocates\nExplore legal obligations under the Equality Act 2010—and go beyond them\nGain practical tools for embedding accessibility in your team\, workplace or service\n\nThis webinar is essential for individuals and organisations who are committed to dismantling ableism and ensuring disabled people are not only included—but empowered\, valued\, and heard. 								\n				\n				\n				\n					\n	\n		\n\n	\n	Add to calendar	\n		\n	\n\n		\n			\n									\n	Google Calendar\n\n									\n	iCalendar\n\n									\n	Outlook 365\n\n									\n	Outlook Live\n\n							\n		\n\n		\n	\n\n				\n				\n		\n		\n				\n		\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					\n	\n		\n\n				Effective Constructive Resettlement	\n\n\n		\n	\n		ACES
