Working with disabled children, young people and their families

Nothing Special Toolkit

Including young disabled people in youth & leisure services (previously known as the YP-in Online Guidance)

This multi-media toolkit emerged out of KIDS Young People’s Inclusion Network (YP-in), a three year project funded by the Big Lottery, looking at the inclusion of young disabled people in youth & leisure services. The toolkit is divided into three parts.

Part one - ‘Inclusion – Does it only exist in policies?’ has now been published and is available on request from KIDS.

Part two - ‘Strategy and Organisational Development for Inclusion’ provides guidance as to how an organisation can become more inclusive in its day to day service delivery.

Part three - ‘Inclusion into Practice’ is a set of tools and guidelines for service providers and those that manage them. It contains information and resources looking at Disabled Young People’s experiences in the areas of: Leisure and Sports Services, Youth Provision, Transport and Independent Living. The materials are a mixture of text, video and photographs.
