At Difference North East, we have always believed that meaningful social change comes from amplifying the voices of Disabled people, challenging perceptions, and working to dismantle barriers at every level.

The Tees Valley EDI Awards provide an important platform to recognise organisations and individuals who drive positive change. From personal achievements to collective success, these awards highlight the commitment to diversity, equality, and inclusion that strengthens our region. Being shortlisted in this context validates the work we do every day and inspires us to continue in new and meaningful ways.
We are proud to celebrate this achievement with our members, allies, and the wider community. It is their voices, participation, and support that make our work possible. If you share our vision for a more inclusive society, we invite you to join us as a member or ally. Together, we can continue to challenge perceptions and build a community that truly celebrates diversity without barriers.
