Support in the Right Direction

Lothian Centre for Inclusive Living

The SiRD project complements the core work of LCiL and the Independent Living Team by delivering high quality peer support groups and workshops to disabled people, older people, parent carers and people with long term conditions. The project aims that through providing information, making connections with others and sharing lived experience, people will feel more informed, more confident about their rights and be better equipped to access the support they need.  The project offers monthly peer support groups both online and in person for disabled people and parent carers, as well as a programme of workshops.
