With the UN in Nuwara Eliya
Two Brighter Path care leavers were invited to take part in a UN Development Programme audit of disabled facilities in Nuwara Eliya, a large town in the tea country of Sri Lanka. Public facilities for the disabled are known to be poor in Nuwara Eliya: disabled access to government buildings, public library and banks as well as accessible public toilets and public transport are all lacking there. Both our care leavers are now working on a report setting out their findings for the UNDP. The UNDP has promised funding for modifications to these public areas so that they are accessible for those with disabilities.
