We are not for profit organisation working to enable people at risk of exclusion, due to age or disability, to live the life they choose.
NDTi has been working with communities, government, health and social care professionals for 25 years to ensure that people with disabilities of all ages are given choice and control over their own lives. Our work always focuses on wider life outcomes. We want disabled and older people to enjoy the same life course and opportunities as everyone else – education, paid work, a place of their own, fulfilling personal relationships and a chance to contribute to their communities.
Our team provide decision makers with the evidence, skills, knowledge and courage to make transformational change happen. We work to ensure that people who risk being excluded have the same opportunities as everyone else.
