Become a KCIL member

and have YOUR say!

KCIL is an independent, user-led organisation that has been working for 40 years to empower and support disabled people in the borough of Kingston-upon-Thames. We campaign for full equality of status, opportunity and inclusion for all disabled people and provide independent living/disability related services. Our services are targeted at all disabled people regardless of age/impairment, but are also available to non-disabled people or organisations.

KCIL provides services whether or not you are a member, but we hope you will become a member as it is important that we hear your views. It gives you the chance to get involved in developing services for the future if you want to. Increased membership means we can better represent the views and experiences of local people.

Membership entitles you to:

  • FREE quarterly newsletter
  • Voting right at our AGM
  • Priority notice of KCIL and other events/activities

Membership is FREE to individuals, and only £10 to organisations. You may make a donation towards our services too if you wish.

For more information contact Robert Reilly on 020 8546 9603.
