A massive thank you to everyone who came along to our Big Disability Open Day last week!
Even though it was our 10th annual open day we never get complacent or forget why we hold this event. Thank you to the 50 organisations who supported our open day and everyone who came along
We would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year and all the best for 2026.
Improving Lives will reopen at 9am on Monday 5th January.

ALT Share your experience and help us improve our assessment process. We're looking at how we approach our Self-Directed Support (SDS) assessment for adults and want to hear from people with lived experience. Your views can help shape how we improve things so support feels more personal, flexible and right for you. If you currently have an SDS budge (any option) and would be happy to get involved, please get in touch! #SelfDirectedSupport #SDS #HaveYourSay #CoProduction Email [email protected] to find out more.
