Panel Event: The Intersection of Caring and Disability

A NEST-Access King’s event

Having a disability can complicate our lives in many different ways – as can caring responsibilities. Whether it’s parenting/looking after a child, or caring for an adult who is elderly, disabled or has additional medical needs, these responsibilities look different when also managing your own disability.

Join us for this panel event, where we will hear from King’s staff who have both disabilities and caring responsibilities. Our panellists will talk about what that intersection looks like for them, and how caring and disability affect one another.

All staff are welcome – you might have a disability, be a parent or carer, both, or neither. Whether you’d like to hear from others with similar experiences, are looking forward in your own life journey, or are a manager, colleague or friend seeking to understand and support those around you, we welcome you to come along.

We also invite you to stay after the panel discussion to meet other attendees over a cup of tea/coffee and a biscuit.
