Office for Disability Issues

The Office for Disability Issues (ODI) was set up to help government deliver on the commitment made in the report,'Improving the Life Chances of Disabled People'. The report says that by 2025, disabled people should have the same opportunities and choices as non-disabled people and be respected and included as equal members of society.

The ODI acts as a champion of disabled people within government. They work with all departments to help them better understand and meet the needs and aspirations of disabled people.
