We are in the Talbot Hotel Stillorgan where the DLR PPN Autumn Netwoking Meeting should have welcomed more than 200 participants, 26 information stands and 3 distinguished guest speakers. However, due to the industrial action affecting dlr County Council and other institutions staff, the DLR PPN Secretariat and Team have made the difficult decision to postpone the event.

💙 Disability Equality: Small Changes, Big Difference

Join us online at 7pm on Tuesday 29 September for a free disability awareness webinar facilitated by the Disability Federation of Ireland in partnership with the dlr County Council Equality Office.

This practical and engaging session will explore what disability equality means in everyday life and how small changes in our attitudes, actions and environments can make a significant difference for people with disabilities. Participants will gain a better understanding of disability awareness, learn how barriers can affect inclusion, and discover simple, practical ways to help create more accessible and welcoming communities.

Whether you're involved in a community group, sports club, local organisation or simply want to learn more, this webinar will provide valuable insights and guidance on how we can all play a part in promoting equality, inclusion and accessibility.

Due to the FORSA and SIPTU industrial action on the 30th of September, which precludes dlr County Council staff and other organisations from attending events after hours, the DLR PPN Autumn Networking Event has been postponed.

The DLR PPN Secretariat and Team thanks everyone for their understanding and support in this situation which is outside of our control. We hope to advise members of a new date soon.
