About The DPO Forum

We are a diverse and united collective of:

  • Deaf and Disabled people

  • Deaf and Disabled people's organisations (DDPOs) and

  • Deaf and Disabled people-led groups across the UK.

 

We aim to raise our voices and share our priorities for a more inclusive and accessible society.

​

What is a DDPO?

Deaf and Disabled People's Organisations (DDPO) are run by and for Deaf and Disabled People.

​

Deaf and Disabled people might make up:

  • 75% or more of the organisation's board members, or

  • 50% of an organisation's staff

  • (Or both!)​

​

If your organisation is a DDPO in England, you can also get involved with DPO Forum England. Contact us for more information.​
