Scope is proud to be a member-based organisation. Our members come from all walks of life and share a common goal — to make a difference in the lives of people with a disability.
As a Scope member, you can play a vital role in helping us achieve our purpose, which is to create meaningful opportunities for people with disability to belong and thrive. You’ll be an advocate. A voice for Scope in the disability sector.
Scope membership carries many benefits for engaging with our organisation. Our governance members must be over the age of 18 years, comply with the Member Code of Conduct and agree to our Scope Member Charter.
Together, we can inspire and lead change and speak up for people with a disability in the community.
