</h1><h1>These sessions will cover: 
</h1><h1>• Key legal framework 
</h1><h1>• Historical context

</h1><h1>• Social Model

</h1><p>&quot;Darryl has over 30 years experience in the public sector. His career has focused on championing equality, cohesion and inclusion. He is a strong advocate of developing effective partnerships that challenge and dismantle disabling barriers to bring about effective and lasting change to people&#x27;s lives. Over the years he has supported local partnerships and working groups alongside numerous national roles that aim to break down the attitudinal, physical and societal barriers that disable people. As a founding member of the award-winning Strategic Disability Partnership he had a key role facilitating the Tackling Disability Hate Crime group. Through its influence and tenacity disability hate crime began to be more widely understood and addressed. Undoubtedly there is still a long way to go. Darryl is a keen advocate of the &quot;social model&quot; in that disabled people are not seen as passive receivers of a service but are actively challenging for equality working in partnership with allies.
