This year, Carers’ Rights Day is on Thursday 20 November and the theme is ‘Know your rights, use your rights.’ In this online coffee date, hosted by IP Ability, they will signpost useful resources for carers, but also provide a social space for a wider discussion on how carers can look after themselves, as well as an opportunity to share any top tips.
IP Ability is the IP Inclusive community for disabled people, carers and their allies working within the IP professions. They aim to provide a supportive and informative network focusing on issues relating to disability, neurodiversity and health conditions of all kinds, be they mental or physical, visible or invisible, permanent or temporary, sudden onset or progressive.
Who is it for?
Everyone who works in or with the UK’s IP sector is welcome. It doesn’t matter if you are a carer, or what type of organisation or department you work in, what role you play there or how senior you are, they'd love you to get involved!
Bring a guest!
IP Inclusive wants to reach as many IP people as possible. Why not invite a guest to come to this event with you – someone in a different role or at a different career level, perhaps; an ally or potential ally; or a colleague who’s not yet involved with IP Inclusive? They’ll be most welcome!
Registration
This event is free. So are all IP Inclusive resources. That said, they do need money to keep the show on the road, so if you enjoy the event please consider contributing. For more information, visit the IP Inclusive fundraising page.
