Brothers of Charity Services Ireland (BOCSI), the state’s largest provider of learning disability supports are staging the 25th National Advocacy Conference in Clare later this week (October 16/17th). “Let’s Get Real”, which will take place at the Armada Hotel, will showcase advocates from around the country in a feast of drama, dance, puppetry and film... this year with a global dimension! Together with their international friends, Brothers of Charity Services Ireland have created a Global Manifesto for Self-Advocacy based on the UN Charter of Disability Rights, which they’ll launch at the Armada Hotel. For more on this, Alan Morrissey was joined by BOC Advocacy Officer and Conference Coordinator, Rob Hopkins, PRO with the conference and Vice Chair at National Platform of Self Advocates, Joe McGrath and National Advocacy Council Chairperson, Claire Nagle.
