'Uniting voices, improving services'

Leeds Involvement Project is the local leader in involving hard-to-reach groups in the planning, development and evaluation of the services that matter to them. We facilitate involvement for local organisations striving for best practice, with a wealth of expertise from people who use Adult Social Care services.

Complying with current disability equality legislation is a complex obligation for all sectors. Our expert groups are here to provide the guidance you need. Contact us for further information, or explore the site for examples of our recent work.

Members

Do you use Adult Social Services? Are you disabled, an older person, a Deaf person, a member of Leeds' diverse minority ethinic or lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans communities, or do you care for a disabled person? Did you know that you are an expert by experience? You could volunteer to be an expert group member and make a difference to the services you care about.

Leeds Involvement Project is a user-led service, which means it is run for and by people just like you.

We work to the "Social Model of Disability".This means that people are not disabled through a difference in body or mind, but by the barriers they face from society. Society as a whole has a responsibility to ensure that everybody is able to participate in all aspects of life. We also work to the "Deaf Cultural Model", which respects the culture and community of Deaf people for whom British Sign Language is their first or preferred language.
