As a campaigning body, we represent the views of our 160 member groups, working to bring about positive change to the social, economic and cultural life of people with disabilities and consequently to our entire community.
Disability Action is unique in its work, as it is the only Northern Ireland wide pan disability organisation working with disabled people with various disabilities; physical, mental, sensory and hidden. Our work is important as one in five people in Northern Ireland has a disability.
