About Scope


Our vision

Our vision is a world where disabled people have the same opportunities to fulfil their life ambitions as non-disabled people.

Our purpose

Our purpose is to drive the changes that will make our society the first in which disabled people are able to realise their full civil liberties and human rights.

Our beliefs

See the person.
 In our interactions with disabled people we consider all of the qualities and characteristics that go to make people distinctive and unique, not only their impairment or condition.

Set no limit on potential.
 Every disabled person has the right to live their life and work towards their goals without being limited by other people's expectations or prejudices. We never set limits on any disabled person's individual potential.

Freedom to choose.
 Every disabled person should have the right to exercise choice and control over all decisions that shape their future including the products, services and support programmes they use.

Independence and inclusion.
 All service developments designed to support disabled people should enable them to become increasingly independent and to live their lives within the community of their choice.

Everyday life equality.
 We believe that all disabled people should have the same opportunity to education, work, building a home and social life, and access to any location or venue that other people in our society enjoy. No more. No less.

Together we can create a better society.
 The investment required to support our beliefs will be more than repaid through the as yet untapped potential of disabled people and through our collective pride in creating a better society for all.
