Learning Disability Week 2024

Last year, we had:

A focus group on Housing designs for residents with Learning Disabilities.

  • What people said in the meeting is in a report for Newham’s Planning Department. They will use this for the Local Plan to create the right kind of housing in Newham.
 
We also had a free BBQ at Chargeable Lane. We had over 250 people join us for:
  • Performances by residents with learning disabilities
  • Music and Dancing with DJ Steve
  • Information about community support and activities
