This is one of 2 events that we are hosting on behalf of NHS England which will also feed into Transforming Care Partnerships across West London. Please note these events are the same so you only need to attend one!
We are looking to consult with a wide range of people, seeking to explore what “Good Support” looks like for people who have learning disabilities and their carers, this will range from finding out peoples experiences of housing, health and support services, seeing what works and doesn’t work and finding out what people think needs to change.
We would like to hear from anyone who has a learning disability and/or their carers and proffesionals living in West London and are particularly interested to hear from people who may have experience of behaviours that could be described as challenging, and/or people who have mental health problems.
We are holding a number of engagement activities from one to one discussions to the two accessible listening events that we will be holding in Ealing and Hammersmith.
We would like to hear from as many people as possible so please pass this email around your networks.
Once we accumulate everyone’s views we will be writing a report setting out our findings and recommendations that will go to NHS England, local transforming care partnerships and beyond and will help them shape future services more effectively.
If you know anyone who you think would prefer to have a one to one or skype/ telephone discussion please let me know. I will be forwarding an easy read survey asking about peoples experiences for those who prefer to engage in this way

Hate Crime is on the increase in Hammersmith & Fulham. The Hate Crime West London Support Service is there to support victims of hate crime report it and get support to cope with its impact. Between 2014 and 2015 the following increases in hate crime were reported to the Police in Hammersmith & Fulham:
Islamophobic hate crime up from 2 crimes to 6 crimes
Homophobic hate crime up from 2 crime to 3 crimes
Racist and religious hate crime up from 25 to 27 crimes
Not all hate crime is reported so these figures are not the full picture and the service aims to support people to report hate crime.
HFVC is hosting a drop-in information session in partnership with MOPAC and Hate Crime West London. This session aims to give voluntary sector organisations an overview of what hate crime is, how to identify it and how to refer clients who are victim to it. The sessions will be led by anti-hate crime experts Farah Ul-Haque and Irfan Arif of Ealing Equality Council. The event will take place:
Friday 11th March 2016 at 10am to 11:30am
at White City Community Centre, India Way, London W12 7QT
There is no need to book. Please just turn up.
If you are unable to attend but would like to know more, please see the leaflet here. If you are aware of clients experiencing hate crime please make contact with the service who will be happy to discuss how they can help.
