SCDG

We believe that:

  • churches are for everyone, regardless of disability;
  • churches fulfil their mission only when everyone can access worship and church life;
  • churches need everyone’s talents – including those of people with disabilities

We aim to help churches to be inclusive by:

  • demonstrating good practice in inclusive worship and church communities;
  • telling people about initiatives in inclusive church life;
  • raising the profile of talented people with disabilities in Scottish churches;
  • proposing solutions to barriers which restrict access to church life in Scotland;
  • encouraging people who support inclusive church life to gather in local regions of Scotland;
  • lobbying and negotiating with authorities on ethical issues affecting the lives of people with disabilities and their families.
