Scope Awards

What are the Scope Awards? 

The Scope Awards celebrate those who are working to end disability inequality. 

We want to hear from individuals, groups and organisations. Anyone who is working to create an equal future for disabled people. We want to share your stories. To amplify disabled voices and build a movement of change. 

The Scope Awards bring people together, allowing us to use our collective power to change attitudes and achieve our mission of an equal future for disabled people.
