Northampton Disability Forum International Day of People with Disabilities
Date and time
Location
Online event
As we are unable to run our usual celebration event for IDPWD we have moved online!
About this event
We will be sending the link out in the last few days before the event to everyone who has signed up. Once you have the link you will be able to come and go as you wish throughout the event. It is free to attend.
This year's theme is not all disabilities are visible.
If you have any questions for any of the speakers, please email them to forums@northampton.gov.uk either prior to the event or on the day. We will get as many answered as we can during the event and any we don't manage to do on the day will be answered during the following days. A link to a webpage will be sent to all attendees after the event with information and links to everything that is covered on the day and maybe more!
