We are a relatively new organisation, formed in 2001. Our home is Arklow, a town located in South County Wicklow, Ireland, a county called 'the garden of Ireland' due to its natural beauty.

It has an ever increasing population of 9,000 people that is expected to double over the coming years.

Arklow Disability Action Group (ADAG) is a local advocacy group, based in Arklow, dedicated to addressing issues that affect the lives of people with physical, sensory and intellectual disabilities.

Since our establishment just four years ago, we have been involved in a number of local activities related to the issues of disability. Supported by Arklow Community Enterprise, (ACE) and the local Irish Wheelchair Association (IWA), we identified a range of issues of concern and established a number of working groups to explore those issues.
