WHAT WE DO
AND WHY
Able Comics is an independent provider of creative communication services for the disability community. We use photo strips in a comic style format to deliver strong messaging and stories for disabled people, support staff and service providers.
Turning away from the medical model and diagnostic records we can explore individuals' attributes, needs and wishes and develop a narrative that tells their unique stories. We can also support organisations as they communicate changes to achieve good lives for disabled people.
