Why is this important?

CoolTan Arts is a disabled-led mental health and arts charity which has been taken over by non-disabled people who appear to have no interest in either mental health, arts or disability politics and so are destroying the ethos of participation and equality that has taken over two decades to build.
In difficult financial times such as now the need for such a radical thinking space is needed more than ever as disabled peoples rights are crushed and ignored at every possible opportunity. CoolTan was a beacon for disabled people .
Your support will help us remove the existing unrepresentative and uncaring board and help restore a pioneering anti-stigma charity to its former glory.
