Regional Disability Network
The network has been set up to give a voice to all disabled people living and working in the West Midlands. This is a large area of the country, with people living in England’s second city, market towns and the countryside. People who live here come from many different cultures with very varied experiences of disability. All these people are experts in their own way on disability and we want all their voices to be heard. We want to make sure that all organisations that provide services to disabled people sit up and take notice, and make sure what they do is accessible for disabled people.
We are setting up a steering group to help develop the network and make sure it does listen to all disabled people, and represent them to local, county, and regional government. The network is looked after by a project team. If you want to find out more about joining the steering group please contact on one of the team.
The RDN Project team are
Joanna Matthews Project Manager
Mark Lynes Project Worker
Asim Riaz Finance and Monitoring Officer
Lisa Wiggins Information and Communications Officer

We are funded by the Big Lottery Foundation.
