National Development Team for Inclusion

NDTi has been working with communities, government, health and social care professionals for over 25 years to ensure that people with disabilities of all ages are given choice and control over their own lives.

Our organisation exists to make change happen by celebrating what’s possible, supporting changemakers and building self-determination. Our work always focuses on wider life outcomes. We want disabled and older people to enjoy the same life course and opportunities as everyone else – education, paid work, a place of their own, fulfilling personal relationships and a chance to contribute to their communities.

Our core activities include:

·    Development and change management support - delivering what is effectively consultancy to organisations to help people make real local change

·    Research and evaluation - generating evidence on what works and does not work to support replication of best practice and generate new knowledge to improve understanding of complex issues

·    Personal development – development, learning and training to help individuals work in new ways, including leadership development and mentoring programmes

·    Policy influence - shaping public debate through work with government and national and local stakeholders

·    Demonstrating excellence - supporting people and organisations to show what is possible in terms of achieving better outcomes for people

·    Dissemination - through conferences, publications, social media etc., sharing our knowledge and evidence of how to achieve better outcomes for people
