Change & Development

Our Approach to Change and Development

Featured Work

Children and Young People

Our Children and Young People’s programme has been designed to ensure that children, young people and families who are most at risk of exclusion have more choice and control over their lives, are included in their local communities and achieve better outcomes.
Learning Disabilities

NDTi has been at the forefront of the progressive learning disabilities agenda for 35 years.
Housing and Support

The National Development Team for Inclusion (NDTi) has a vision of a society where all people, regardless of age or disability, are valued and able to live the life they choose
Small Supports

We believe that there is a need to encourage and grow community based, high quality, person centered and value for money small providers to add to the choices available.
