Impact Publishing Ltd produces the UK’s favourite disability lifestyle publication, Able Magazine.

The publication has presented answers and solutions and has been read with real purpose for 28 years; in which time we’ve developed a trusted voice. We continue to reach approximately one million disabled people a year, not least because they experience difficulty finding the range of disability specific features and advice we offer elsewhere.

Impact Publishing is a Disability Confident Leader organisation. Our editor, Tom Jamison, is a disabled person and Disability Power 100 alumnus. Tom hand picks and coaches, often younger, disabled writers, some of whom have become Disability Power 100 Influencers, and the company has a tradition of hiring disabled staff in all departments.

The company is often invited to put forward panellists, moderators and judges such as for the National Diversity Awards, Creative Diversity Network, Remap and independent living exhibition, Naidex, where we are disability media partners, award judges and advisors. We were selected to produce the Special Olympics Great Britain National Games programme for our skills in celebrating learning (intellectual) disabled athletes. Similarly, we also worked with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles to produce a brochure detailing their models specifically for disabled customers – an industry first.  

As the country builds back better, we’re pushing disabled people themselves, as well as organisations, to understand the powerful implications of viewing disability differently and more positively.

Impact Publishing works with businesses and organisations, helping them to understand that diverse inclusion works best as an ongoing concept, rather than as a standalone project or initiative.
