The 'treasured' organisation has helped people to improve their lives
Scousers expanded a charity from a five month IT project to an organisation fighting systematic injustice across the world.
“In the early days, 1998 to say 2003, people that came to the project, their educational background was just so far removed from me and from other facilitators on the project. People didn't know how to spell their name, they didn't understand money, they couldn't use public transport on their own. “If you can imagine individuals who've never been taught to read or write, don't know how to tell the time, been through SEN schools, and then they're then standing in front of a hundred nursing students telling them how it is, and how they need to change.”
Loretta argues ill treatment towards disabled people can be seen in everyday life, such as the uneven pavements which make it difficult for those in wheelchairs to move around the city. She references one project with the Civic Design Students.
