EEAST’s Disability Support Network are celebrating Disability History Month.
This year, Disability History Month runs from 18th November until 18th December, and will focus on the theme of hidden illnesses.
Throughout the month members of the Disability Support Network will be sharing their own experiences of living with a hidden illness, and how it affects them on a day-to-day basis, here on Need to Know.
If you would like to show your support, you can use this Microsoft Teams background that has been produced for the month, you can also find out more from the Disability History Month website.
The Disability Support Network is open to all staff, not only for our staff with disabilities whether visible or invisible, but for anyone who supports someone with a disability, be it a colleague, family member or friend.
If you would like to join the network or find out more information, please feel free to contact the group on DisabilitySupportNetwork@eastamb.nhs.uk.
