Welcome to BuDS Disability Service

BuDS Disability Service, established in 2004, is a user-led, pan-disability grassroots charity working across England. We are led by disabled people and committed to the social model of disability. We were known as Buckinghamshire Disability Service (BuDS) until 2025, when we became a national charity.

Our visionary aim is to abolish disability by building a world which is Fair4All, free of the barriers which disable people. Our work helps build an inclusive world where disabled and non-disabled people have equal status and equal value opportunities to live their lives.
