Our Projects
Compass Disability Services currently facilitates projects in Somerset and Wiltshire including:
The Somerset Access and Inclusion Network - A network of individual disabled people and organisations in Somerset that work with disabled people. We aim to consult with the network on various topics in partnership with the local authorities to improve access and inclusion to services and facilities in Somerset. Membership is free.
The Forum for Equality and Diversity in Somerset - This forum is established as a network to promote Equality and Diversity in the County of Somerset. The forum brings together campaigning and service delivery organisations from the six equality strands of Disability, Race, Faith, Age, Sexual Orientation and Gender.
