Led by Shape CEO David Hevey, the National Disability Movement Archive and Collection (NDMAC) is the latest large scale heritage project delivered by Shape. 

With funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and Arts Council England, NDMAC uncovers and celebrates many of the personal stories behind the crip fights for civil rights in the UK.

NDMAC's website is full of tools for online user’s needs, such as a catalogue of 1,500 newly digitised images from the personal collections donated, as well as many oral history films, a graphic novel charting the movement for civil rights, the legendary No Limits by Judy Hunt detailed history of the disability rights movement, with oral histories showing some personal recollections of the fights for rights, lots of free downloads – and much much more.

NDMAC also has the newly refurbished NDMAC/NDACA wing for learning at Buckinghamshire New University, where we hold both the NDMAC and NDACA physical elements – book your visit online.

NDMAC also links to other superb disabled peoples movement history and archives such as The Disabled People’s Archive at the Greater Manchester Coalition. Find out more.
