Meetings
The group has a flexible approach to meetings, you don't need to attend every meeting and can attend face-to-face, or virtually.
To make sure we meet people's different needs we will:
- Hold meetings and events in accessible locations so everyone can attend
- Provide translation or interpretation if your first language is not English
- Cater for different dietary or religious requirements
- Hold meetings outside of normal working hours
Progress so far
So far the group have been working on:
- Providing feedback and reviewing the 兔子先生 Strategy and the newly developed Assistive Technology Strategy
- Some of the group visited Your Voice Counts drop in Jarrow, to promote what the Working Together Group do
- Reviewing the "Let's Talk Team" and helping to shape Let's Talk information for the website
- The group are currently co-producing a new "self-assessment form" and helping to develop the process sitting behind this form
