Give disabled people bigger role in society, urges group

PEOPLE with disabilities must be given a greater role in society, Enable Ireland has urged.

Chief executive Fionnuala O’Donovan said the organisation was committed to working for an inclusive society.

“There have been some strides for people with disabilities to advance to further education, take up employment and participate in society as a whole but we have a long way to go to strive to make social inclusion a reality for people with disabilities,” she said.
