Empowering All Abilities Through Awareness

Emil Heppell founder of Ability Aware www.abilityaware.co.uk

"At Ability | Aware, we believe that diversity is the key to success.

​

As someone who is severely visually impaired,

I know firsthand the challenges that people with disabilities face in the workplace. That's why we offer disability awareness training to help companies tap into the potential of diverse abilities.

​

Our training program aims to create a more inclusive workplace that benefits not only employees but also opens up new opportunities for businesses.

 

With statistics showing that people with diverse abilities make significant contributions to the UK economy, it's time to embrace and empower

all abilities through awareness."
