Ability NI is available through newsagents, and on subscription direct to the reader’s home. We are sure you are keen to promote your business and help our readers to have choice and involvement within our society. Sister magazine Klassability launched in 2015 and has enjoyed unprecedented popularity. Distributed free of charge, this fun magazine features the pupils, staff and schools around our province that teach our children with special needs.
