Biz-Ability - supporting User Led Organisations in Norfolk 

Biz-Ability is a new initiative for User Led Organisations (ULOs) and individuals, designed to be a springboard for new enterprises and groups to deliver much-needed community services - including those services under threat from public service budget cuts.

Launched by the Norfolk Coalition of Disabled People (NCODP) in January 2011, Biz-Ability supports disabled people, older people and carers to develop the skills and networks essential to successfully setting up and sustaining businesses, social enterprises and peer support groups.

Biz-ability offers a range of services including workshops and ‘one to one’ business support delivered by a range of local trainers and advisors.

Following the series of workshops held so far, one participant said - 

"I think this.....has made it easy for the disabled community to access knowledge and skill from a sector that is normally not involved with us....."

In enabling the development of groups and businesses to deliver a range of accessible services, Biz-ability seeks to promote greater choice and opportunities for local communities, disabled people, older people and carers.
