Conference Theme 

Our Lives, Our Voices!

People with disabilities have shared a lot about their lives in the last few years. 

Our voices have been put on record in reports, reviews, and consultations.

But have we really been heard?

Will our voices actually make a difference?

Will we continue to be listened to as things change?

Is support going to be safer?

Will we be able to live ordinary lives like others – holding jobs, living with those we want to, enjoying our interests and being part of our communities?

They’re our lives, and we want our voices to be really listened to… not just recorded but truly respected.

More on the conference theme is in the EOI (Expression of Interest).

EOI have now closed but we take late EOI’s.
