Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic Families with disabled children share their lives, hopes and journeys on new TV Programme.

Include Me TOO in partnership with Sangat TV are producing several community programmes with BAME (Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic) families with disabled children and young people.

The first programme is being aired this Tuesday 14th May 2013 at 8.30pm on Sky Channel 847 (Sangat TV). In this programme Asian parents with disabled children share their families journeys and provide personal testimonies which range from discussing their hopes, faiths and strengths.

The programme is the first of several which will provide greater awareness and understanding regarding families with disabled children from BAME communities; aiming to remove barriers of ignorance and encouraging communities to talk about disability, inclusion, equality and respect. Programmes to be aired in the future include BAME parents sharing their experiences of having children with autism and fathers  discussing issues that matter to them in regards to having a disabled child.

Their voices need to be heard, recognised and valued, shaping local services and having their aspirations taken into account.
