Help me raise awareness of the Disabled Community

Hi there my name is Trish McQueen and I have cerebral palsy. I have struggled to live my life the way I wanted to, people have always told me how I should live. Due to this preconception as to what my abilities are I have been unable to find work.

Using my life experiences I am wanting to raise awareness for people with disabilities and what support services are available and to help break down these preconceptions of the disabled community.

I have decided to do these disabled workshops as I have been unsuccessful with finding employment so I am wanting to raise awareness on available Disability Support Services and to help members of the public more greatly understand the daily challenges faced by those with disabilities.

My goal is that with these workshops more members of the public will attend and have a greater understanding of the often forgotten about disabled community that existing in all communities.

I want to give a big thank you to Freedom Living Charitable Trust for helping me make this page and supporting me, check them out:
