International Day of Persons with Disabilities - 2024

This year, we're turning the spotlight on an urgent yet often overlooked intersection: disability rights and climate action.

A greener, cleaner, and healthier environment, if achieved in the right way, would vastly improve the lives of people with disabilities. This event is a recognition that we can achieve more – for the borough, and for our planet – by listening to the unique knowledge and strengths of people with disabilities.

Hear from expert speakers from TfL, UCL, the University of Exeter, and more.

Whether it’s a marketplace with disability-confident employers and local disability groups, a fire-side chat with subject matter experts, or a panel on transport – there will be something for everyone.

Come join us. When it comes to saving our planet, we need every voice, every idea, and every ability.
