    Our incredible corporate partners, like Moto Hospitality make a huge difference to people’s lives ⬇ Moto Foundation has been supporting us for 2 whole years now. One of the brilliant projects they've helped fund is Creative Minds at Sheffield Mind Ltd. Creative Minds offers art and movement therapy to women, many from South Asian backgrounds. Sheffield Mind and Roshni Sheffield have worked closely together to deliver this brilliant work. People who’ve used the service say it's helped them develop their confidence and self-esteem. One person went from using the service herself, to building the confidence to support other women. This photo is from earlier this year, when some of the Moto Foundation trustees visited Sheffield Mind. They learnt more about the service and did some of their own creative therapy. It’s incredible how much we can achieve together. Huge thanks to Moto, Sheffield Mind and Roshni Sheffield 💙

Actively listen and learn about the experiences of disabled people Recognise that not all disabilities are visible. Advocate for accessibility and inclusion in all environments Ask how you can support before trying to help Challenge ableism. Stand against stereotypes, discriminatory practices and misinformation. Keep going! Being an ally to the 1 in 5 of us who are disabled is an ongoing process of learning, listening, and taking action.
