Disibility Action


Disability Action works to ensure that people with disabilities attain their full rights as citizens, by supporting inclusion, influencing Government policy and changing attitudes in partnership with disabled people.

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.

As a campaigning body, they represent the views of their member groups, working to bring about positive change to the social, economic and cultural life of people with disabilities and consequently to the entire community.

They offer a range of services including information & policy, employment and training support, capacity building, training on disability issues, transport and mobility assessment, all aimed at improving the quality of life of people with disabilities in Northern Ireland.

Disability Action has five offices. It's Head Quarters and Transport office in Belfast, and four local offices in Derry, Dungannon, Carrickfergus and Newry each providing a range of services.

Certain offices have meeting rooms available to hire, all of which are fully accessible and have an induction loop system.
