Disability History Month (DHM) runs from mid-November to mid-December. Disability History Month is supported by a wide range of disability groups, unions and voluntary organisations, and aims to promote disabled people's rights and their struggle for equality now and in the past.
If you are planning an activity for Disability History Month, or an EDI event at any time of the year, please get in touch with the EDI Centre.
