Your voice matters. Add it to ours.
When you become a member of Inclusion Ireland, you become part of a national movement working for the rights, equality and full inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities.
Our members include people with intellectual disabilities, family members, supporters, advocates and allies from communities across Ireland.
Together, we can make our voice stronger and create change.
What does membership mean?
Lifetime membership of Inclusion Ireland is about more than joining an organisation. It is about having a voice, influencing our work and being part of a wider community of people who want to see a more equal and inclusive Ireland.
Our members help us understand what is happening in people’s lives, what needs to change and where our collective voice can have the greatest impact.
As a member, you can:
- Have your voice heard – tell us about the issues that matter to you and your community.
- Influence our work – help shape our policy, campaigns, resources and organisational priorities.
- Take part – get involved in consultations, focus groups, projects, events and advocacy opportunities.
- Have a say in Inclusion Ireland – members have voting rights at our AGM and a formal role in our governance.
- Stay informed and connected – access information, updates, webinars and opportunities to connect with others who share our commitment to rights and inclusion.
A stronger collective voice
Inclusion Ireland does not create change on its own.
Change happens when people come together.
Every day, people with intellectual disabilities, families, self-advocates and local groups are speaking up, challenging barriers and pushing for better rights and opportunities.
Sometimes people lead a campaign or advocate strongly on an issue for a period of time before someone else picks up the torch.
Inclusion Ireland is here for the long term – connecting people, holding onto shared knowledge, supporting advocacy and helping to keep momentum for change moving forward.
Our members are a vital part of that.
More Information
Information, connection and support
Membership is also about belonging to a community.
We create opportunities for members to learn, connect and participate through member communications, webinars, policy updates, accessible information, advocacy discussions, events and direct engagement with our team.
We want our members to have the information and tools they need to understand the issues affecting them, respond to Government proposals, raise concerns and advocate for change in their own lives and communities.
Join Inclusion Ireland
Our strength comes from the people and communities we partner with and represent.
The more people who add their experiences, knowledge and voices to our movement, the stronger our collective voice becomes.
