Young disabled people in Wales are getting an opportunity to become disability equality trainers. Children in Wales co-ordinates the Young Disabled Persons' Network, which supports young disabled people to play a full part in the decision-making processes that affect their lives.
The Young Disabled Persons' Network is working with Learning Disability Wales to help young people aged between 16 and 25 become more aware of disability rights and support them in starting the process of becoming disability awareness trainers.
The courses will enable them to get Youth Achievement Awards and become participation trainers.
