2012 - The Year of Celebrations!

It's precisely when times are dark that people need light and fun in their lives! We want disabled people to be able to access and enjoy the Diamond Jubilee and Olympic & Paralympics Games celebrations in Bucks this summer as equals alongside people without disabilites, and for disability itself to be seen positively.
