Testimonial
Patrick Salter, HR advisor, Border & Immigration Agency""The event was a fantastic opportunity to learn more about disabilities and because it was informal meant it allowed for more open discussion, which was really useful. It was also great to meet delegates from other organisations, to gain their perspectives on similar issues. The quiz tasks were really informative and I have incorporated some of them into our in-house training, but most of all it was really fun.""
