Notice Title

Disability Equality Training

Notice Description

This Disability Equality Training course provides an opportunity for DfT staff to experience travelling across different modes of transport with disabled access guides who will share their personal perspectives around accessibility. This is then followed by an afternoon session in the classroom with trainers who will help identify strategic actions that can improve the travel experience for disabled people.
