ARC 

The Association for Real Change ”¨(ARC) is a UK wide umbrella charity representing the interests of around 350 service providers who support people with a learning disability in the UK. A major part of its role is the promotion of education and training  amongst the workforce in the sector.  It also promotes best practice, service diversity, and represents the views of providers at a local, regional, national and European level. ARC believes that people with a learning disability should be enabled to be in control of their own lives to the greatest possible extent and that all services should promote rights, inclusion, choice and independence throughout the EU. 

 

ARC  originally proposed ”¨the idea for the whole ECC project.”¨  ARC was also the Project Co-ordinator for the CCFC project which ended in October 2011.
