About Difability

Difability recognises different abilities and helps turn them into real opportunities in work, enterprise and everyday life. This page explains the name, how Difability works with IT’S POSSIBLE NOW, and the company behind it.

What the name means

Difability means different ability. Disability describes real experiences and real barriers. Difability also asks: what ability is here, and what needs to change for it to become opportunity?

Not to deny disability, but to make sure disability never becomes the whole definition of a person.

That is why Difability works with people’s skills and ambitions first, and with the support and changes that make work possible.

Difability and IT’S POSSIBLE NOW

Difability and IT’S POSSIBLE NOW are initiatives of the same company. They work together, and each has its own part.

  1. IT’S POSSIBLE NOW

    creates and tests practical routes to opportunity: paid work, self-employment and enterprise.

  2. SHAPE

    part of IT’S POSSIBLE NOW, finds barriers with people who have lived experience, and tests the changes that remove them.

  3. Difability

    recognises different abilities, and turns what has been tested into recognised practice.

Recognition always follows practice: an organisation is recognised for changes it has made, tested and kept in use. Read how recognition works, or visit the IT’S POSSIBLE NOW website.
