Your training, preparation, and engagement toolkit for serving the 11,000+ disabled people in your constituency. Wherever you work โ office, surgery, event, or parliament.
Inaccessible surgeries. Staff unsure how to help. No way to share access needs in advance. No preparation for phone calls, events, or meetings. These are not edge cases โ they affect thousands of people in every constituency in Scotland.
WelcoMe gives your team the training, preparation, and data to serve every constituent with confidence.
Short, scenario-based modules designed for caseworkers. Built on spaced repetition so part-time staff actually retain what they learn.
Constituents share their access requirements once. The information follows them wherever they engage with you โ office, surgery, event, or parliament.
Understand the accessibility landscape of your constituency. Anonymised data you can use in debates, committees, and constituent communications.
MSPs are not desk-bound. WelcoMe goes where you go.
