Elwell Consultant Email: lynne.elwell@in-control.org.uk Mobile: 07825 433517 I worked as a photographer until having my
children. When Nicola, the second of my five children became disabled
at the age of eight months, I made the decision to stay at home to
support her, it was through Nicola that I became aware of the
traditional response to disabled people from society and services. In the past eight years I have co-ordinated seven Partners in Policymaking courses in the north west of England, and have supported course graduates to run courses in the south east, the north east and in the north west, Merseyside, Wigan, Wirral. I have been instrumental in ‘spreading the word’ about the Partners. The course has been run several times in Scotland, two courses in Ireland. I have designed courses based on the successful Partners in Policymaking course, Sharing the Challenge, this course is aimed at parents of disabled adults and self advocates, Kindred Spirits, which is designed for people working with disabled children and their families (kindred meaning people who are related to each other in some way, and who have a common bond or goal), and Tomorrow’s Leaders, a course designed for the national self advocacy forum. Following two international academies plans are being made for more courses to run. I currently work part-time for NWTDT and in September 2005 I took on the part-time role as a Family Leadership Development Co-ordinators for the Valuing People Support Team. In this role I will work in the North West to find areas where family leadership is starting to develop and give people help to build on this, this will include developing the kind of education, training and supports they want to build a network of families who can continue to affect governmental policies.
