The Disability Discrimination Act (DDA)   

 

Many people are treated unfairly just because they are disabled. This makes it hard for them to take part and to do what they want.

All discrimination is wrong. And some kinds of discrimination are against the law.

The Disability Discrimination Act is a law to stop people being treated unfairly. We want to make sure people know about this law, and do not break the law.

The law says people should be treated fairly. For example you should be treated fairly when you:  

  •  Want to go to school or college  
  • Want a job  
  • Buy something in a shop or restaurant  

 

 The Disability Rights Commission 

 

The Disability Rights Commission helps people who have a disability.

1 in every 7 people has a disability.

This includes people with a learning disability.

It also includes people who use wheelchairs and people who are blind or deaf. People who have illnesses like heart disease that last a long time are disabled. People who have mental health problems are disabled. 

 

The Disability Rights Commission

Who we are 

 

The Disability Rights Commission wants to stop discrimination against disabled people.

Discrimination is when people treat you unfairly because of your disability.

We want a world where disabled people can take part and are treated fairly.

The Disability Rights Commission has 15 Commissioners. They are the people who decide what we should do. 10 of the Commissioners are disabled people.

The Disability Rights Commission has set up a Learning Disability Action Group.
