Reclaiming Our Futures is an alliance of grass roots groups and disabled peoples’ organisations (DPOs) across the UK who have come together to defend disabled people’s rights and fight for an inclusive society.
ROFA fights for a equality for Deaf and disabled people in the UK in the tradition of the international disability movement. We base our work on the social model of disability, human and civil rights in line with the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). We oppose the discriminatory and disproportionate attacks on our rights by this Coalition Government. Alliance member organisations have been at the forefront of campaigning against austerity and welfare reform.
ROFA members are Disabled People Against Cuts (DPAC), Inclusion London, Equal Lives, Alliance for Inclusive Education (Allfie), People First, Sisters of Frida
