What we aim to achieve
Empower You supports disabled people to lead healthy active lives.
What we do
Empower You is a service to support disabled people to lead more active lifestyles.
It’s not always easy for disabled people to be active.
There are many barriers that often limit or completely prevent participation.
Empower You aims to break down these barriers by supporting disabled people within their desired activities and upskilling those around the individual to promote a network of long-term support.
In doing so Empower You creates a community in which disabled people have the opportunities and support available to better manage their own health and wellbeing.
