028. Is your governing body led by disabled people?

For your organisation to be considered disability-led, more than half of your governing body should comprise disabled people.  We define disability, in accordance with the Disability Discrimination Act, as a physical or mental impairment which has a substantial and long-term adverse effect on a person’s ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities.

We ask for this information so that we can monitor our own performance in ensuring that Futurebuilders meets the needs of a diverse range of communities.
