Movin’ On - Independent Living Film 1995

Movin’ On is a film made in 1995 by one of the projects for young disabled people within Greater Manchester Coalition of Disabled People (GMCDP). It is about independent living and independent living skills.

The video was made to go alongside a manual for trainers of independent living skills courses for young disabled people aged 15 - 25. It features Alison Blake, the course designer and co-ordinator, talking about what independent living means, the barriers young disabled people face, the value of such courses and peer support. There are also interviews with some of the young disabled people who attended the courses run by GMCDP.
