The objects of the Company are to carry on activities which benefit the community and in particular (without limitation) to: 

• Promote the rights of disabled people to access the arts on an equal basis, both as artists and as audience members, and to be resourced to organise and participate in their own cultural activities, as outlined in Article 30 of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
• Promote and provide access to free high-quality, disabled-led arts events and activities for disabled people and their families, carers, PAs, support workers and companions, from the London Borough of Newham and beyond, particularly art and culture that reflects and relates to the experiences and world views of disabled people. This will include organizing events and activities directly; contracting to provide events and activities on behalf of third parties; and promoting events and activities organized by third parties.

• Promote activities where participants gain lasting benefits, including increased self-esteem and self-confidence and wider social networks, as well as increased skills and experience in the arts.

• Promote disabled artists and their work, both to disabled-majority and to inclusive audiences, in Newham, nationally, and internationally.

• Promote the development of and capacity build the Disability Arts sector in Newham, through the provision of support and expertise to existing disabled-led arts groups and the development of new groups and organizations. 

• Promote the employment and self-employment of disabled people in the arts, including through the provision of employment, self-employment, training and volunteering opportunities, and the provision of opportunities to promote and sell artists’ and makers’ work. 

• Promote access and inclusion for disabled people within ‘mainstream’ arts, including within arts education and training and through the provision of consultancy and training services, as well as campaigning and awareness-raising. 

• Promote disabled people’s organizations, through joint working, the provision of activities at disabled-led events, and capacity building and other work to strengthen the sector, to ensure that disabled people have all of the support and services they require to be fully included in their communities and reach their full potential.

• Promote the wider values of the UN Convention on the Rights of Disabled People, empowering disabled people by providing role models and encouraging them to visualise themselves as achievers and leaders and valued members of the community. 

• Promote the London Borough of Newham as the most diverse and accessible borough in the country, and facilitate it to become an international centre of excellence for Disability Arts.
