Disability Pride Month takes place across the whole of July, celebrating the identities, achievements and contributions of disabled people. It challenges stigma and champions a world built for everyone.
When is Disability Pride Month?
Disability Pride Month takes place in July (1-31). It is one of the many UK awareness days that bring people together around a shared cause — see the full calendar.
Why Disability Pride Month matters
