“I enjoyed it, Omar was great at leading and guiding us. I found both sessions very useful. I feel uplifted and really found encouragement in today’s session.”
“I enjoyed the break-out group discussions very much; especially when we were discussing the negativity of so much of the terminology used vis-à-vis disabled people.”
“I liked the training and thought it was useful for fundraising, particularly the medical / social models of disability. It was good to hear other people’s opinions and discuss this. It helped me look at the wider picture of disability. Specifically, I feel better informed about disabled people’s perspective.”
“There was plenty of opportunity for discussion. It was very useful to think about the different terminology as well as understanding things from people’s lived experiences.”
