What our members say...
You have to know the internal hotspots when it comes to the barriers your disabled employees face. PurpleSpace helped us to understand our people better and then map out how to create a more inclusive workplace.
We had taken part in a national benchmark exercise but were overwhelmed by the actions recommended. So, we ran some lived-experience focus groups and bingo - we got more useful information in those sessions than we ever had before.
I once heard someone say he was the first disabled person he had ever met. That sums up the isolating experience of having a disability. The workshop I went on unlocked the fear of being who I am - of sharing my experiences - of being my brilliant self at work.
