Nominated by Scotwest Member Carol Burt-Wilson, I Am Me Scotland is a small Paisley-based charity with a big heart and big aims to change attitudes and behaviours so that disabled people can feel safe within their communities.
Mhairi O’Rourke, the group’s Development Co-ordinator said, “We are so pleased to hear that Scotwest have made this award to I Am Me Scotland! We have recently established a Disability Steering Group in partnership with St Mirren Disability Supporters Association which will provide a welcoming space for disabled people to share their experience and help improve their local community for people with disabilities.
