Our mission is to promote the equality, dignity and independence of disabled people and carers.

WIRED works to a number of Key Principles, these are:
• Empowerment: we believe that people should have control over their own lives.
• Choice of where to live and how to maintain independence without over protection.
• Consultation: involvement in service planning by disabled people and carers.
• Information: clear and easily available.
• Participation in local, regional and national communities.
• Recognition that disability is not synonymous with illness.
• Autonomy: the freedom to make decisions about life.

WIRED works with groups and individuals building partnerships between professionals, clients and ourselves.
