#ChangeIsComing
We All Matter, Eh? wishes to thank all the deputies that voted for the proposals for Discrimination Legislation. We hope the focus will now be on what we can all do to support the community to prepare for the law.
We All Matter, Eh? will be focusing on:
- raising awareness and changing attitudes around disability and carers
- forming partnerships to provide information and training to the community
Save the Date: Tuesday 2nd November 2021 Purple Tuesday

Raising awareness
In 2021 we will be focusing on forming partnerships with key stakeholders to raise awareness and change attitudes locally around discrimination, disability and access. Projects include:
- A gap analysis of all local training on equality, diversity, access and
- How to increase knowledge and understanding of the proposed discrimination legislation – myth busting the fears
- We partner with the government, public sector, business, third sector and community
We are a group of islanders, and their families, sharing our stories of living with disability in the island of Guernsey.
We want to raise awareness and change the way the Guernsey Community thinks about disability locally. By doing this we want to bring about greater inclusivity for the 13,000 disabled islanders to access the community, this includes: shops, restaurants & cafes, work, entertainment, education – every aspect of everyday life.
