NHS Hammersmith and Fulham CCG would like to invite people living in Hammersmith and Fulham, and their carers, to attend a drop in Equalities Day on our financial recovery plans on:

Date: Wednesday 27 March, 2:30pm – 6pm.

Venue:Irish Cultural Centre, 5 Black’s Rd, Hammersmith, London W6 9DT

The purpose of the drop in is to give local people the opportunity to share how they think the CCG’s proposed financial recovery plans will affect different groups, particularly in consideration of the following: age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion and belief, sex, sexual orientation, people who are homeless, rough sleepers, vulnerable migrants, sex workers, gypsies or travellers, carers, different socio-economic groups and other multiply excluded people.

It is really important that we hear your views to help ensure that we are delivering the safest and most equitable level of clinical care possible.

Although it is a drop in event, we would be grateful if you could please register here:

Applications are now open for National Park City Festival community activity grants.

The Mayor of London is working with the National Park City Foundation, other partners, and Londoners to make London the world’s first National Park City this year. We’ll be marking this moment with the National Park City Festival in July. Now we’d like you to help make it happen.

The festival runs from 20-28 July and will celebrate London’s great outdoor spaces. There’ll be fun activities from culture and health and fitness to wildlife, the environment and more. We will also encourage Londoners to discover new spaces and find fresh ways to get in touch with nature. We want to give all Londoners, community groups and businesses the opportunity to take part. With your help, we can make our city greener, healthier and wilder.

The Mayor is offering community activity grants of £200-2000 to support organisations that want to hold festival activities in their local area. We particularly want to reach out to broader networks and attract audiences who traditionally under-use outdoor space.

Applications are open now with the deadline of 5pm on Friday 15 March. All activities must take place during the National Park City Festival in July.

We would love to hear your fantastic ideas for festival activities from sing-a-long trails and wildlife-hotel building workshops, to park parkour and canal paddle boarding. For more information or to apply, visit http://www.london.gov.uk/national-park-city-festival-grants. Please also feel free to share with any relevant organisations who may be interested in taking part.

If you don’t need grant funding for your activity, you can still add it to the event listings and programme. We’ll be posting more details soon.
