What is DIAL?
Disability Information and Advice Line (DIAL), is made up of a team of experienced experts with a common interest on disability and catering to all aspects of living with a disability. We are made up of a team of agile, committed and focused individuals who believe in the abilities that reside in disability.
As a network of local centers, our primary goal is to provide adequate information and support to individuals living with disability throughout the United Kingdom. With staggering statistics on disability in the UK, we hope to fill the gap in information supply and support on disability.
Our major source of information is through our network of organizations, local councils and government agencies saddled with the responsibility of caring for the needs of persons with disability. Many other resources come from researchers at various institutions and charities across the UK and other nations that benefit the UK people.
