Introducing GDA Glasgow Disability Alliance (GDA) is an organisation led by disabled people and has a membership of over 3500. GDA has, by far, the biggest groundswell of disabled members in Scotland, if not the UK. Glasgow Disability Alliance was established in 2001 and began with a small group of disabled people who were fed up of being ignored by policy makers and feeling excluded from social, civil and political participation in the city. a city-wide organisation was set up to challenge such exclusion and discrimination. Over the last 11 years GDA has grown into a robust, representative and richly diverse disabled people's organisation (DPO). It is by far, the biggest groundswell of disabled members in Scotland. GDA was delighted to receive The Equalities Award at The Herald Society Awards 2010 and 2011 and was a proud runner up in 2012 and 2013. GDA believes in the social model of disability and believes that disabled people are disabled by barriers in society which has not planned for their inclusion. Disability is not about impairments or medical conditions - it is a complex social problem which requires joined up working across a range of agencies and the whole of society to remove barriers. In this way, disability shifts from being a private trouble and is identified as a public, social issue - a problem that has to do with the way society is organised rather than with individual deficit. GDA are delighted to have funding from The Big Lottery Fund for 'Pathways for Change'which supports disabled people of all ages. Full details can be found on the Pathways for Change page of our website. Our current funders include: The Big Lottery Fund, Glasgow Community Planning Partnership, and The Scottish Government.
