Disability Charity Launches First-of-its-Kind Degree Programme

On February 12th 2003, the DARE foundation will officially launch it’s innovative new degree programme in disability. Designed to promote the collaborative style of working championed by DARE, this flexible open learning programme challenges views and opinions of disability, and encourages new ways of thinking and working. A valuable contemporary contribution to the field of disability, the programme is based on the reality of personal experience and practice, and promotes multi-disciplinary approaches to learning.

Open to anyone in the UK interested in the field of disability, including disabled people and service providers, the programme is accredited at undergraduate and Masters level by the University of Bath.

DARE’s unique expertise in bringing together service users and providers will attract employers, in particular in the fields of health and education, to this open learning programme, as they work towards current legislation and guidelines including the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Act (SENDA) and the Department of Health’s National Service Frameworks.

A key partner for service providers in all sectors, DARE is at the forefront of promoting and facilitating user involvement, identified by the Department of Health as an essential aspect of service improvement. Further information on all DARE’s innovative activities is available on the website: www.darefoundation.org
