A few years ago, I sat across from a hiring manager who proudly told me, "We treat everyone the same here."

It was meant to reassure me. Instead, it made my stomach drop.

Because if you're treating everyone the same, you're ignoring the different realities we all live with.

And for disabled people? That silence can be deafening.

Today, there are over 16 million disabled people living in the UK. That's one in four adults.
One in four colleagues.
One in four customers.
One in four friends.

At Aquaintz Consulting, we believe in creating organisations where everyone, regardless of their background or abilities, feels empowered to thrive. Disability inclusion isn't just about compliance or meeting legal requirements; it's about creating environments where everyone can contribute their best work and reach their full potential.

Chronic illnesses can often go unseen, and are traditionally non-visible disabilities, that leave some sufferers feeling like imposters or unseen themselves.
