This means they can miss out on opportunities that would have a positive impact on their lives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough this project, we\u2019ll be providing bespoke training and support to give people the tools and confidence they need to access different methods of transport. Not only that, we\u2019ll be doing it in a way that empowers people with learning disabilities to share their experiences, support their peers and influence how decisions are made.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt Your Voice Counts, we\u2019re passionate about breaking down barriers and finding ways for people with lived experience to bring about change so I\u2019m excited to get the project off the ground with our like-minded partner organisations and see what we can achieve across our region. Thank you to Motability Foundation for our funding!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lisa Jones, Director of Charitable Operations at the Motability Foundation, said \u201cWe\u2019re delighted to award Your Voice Counts with this grant to work in partnership with local organisations to improve access to opportunities for people with learning disabilities in the North East and Cumbria.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour Voice Counts, together with its partners, will offer travel awareness training and peer support, supporting people with learning disabilities to travel independently and confidently. Awarding grants to established and local organisations like these helps us to make an immediate difference to the transport needs of disabled people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motabilityfoundation.org.uk\/\">Motability Foundation website<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New project to tackle travel barriers for people with learning disabilities Travelling with Confidence is a brand new project funded by the Motability Foundation to increase opportunities for people with [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8023,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[42,14],"tags":[226,227],"class_list":["post-8009","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-adapt-news","category-news","tag-mobility-foundation","tag-travel-with-confidence-travel-champions"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
