Join the Grenfell 9 year anniversary Silent Walk on Sunday 14 June. We should not be living in buildings where evacuation and safety remain major concerns.
I’ll be speaking at the rally following the Grenfell Silent Walk. 9 years on, Disabled people are still living in buildings where evacuation and safety remain major concerns. Grenfell must never be forgotten, and neither should the ongoing fight for justice and change. 💚

Our third annual Assembly was an inspiring afternoon of discussion, education and connection. All kinds of renters came together to plan the way forward for housing campaigns in Harrow, learn about the Renters Rights Act and hear @AdamGabsiLDN on the need for accessible housing.

“Accessible housing is good housing.” Watch HAD trustee and @InclusionLondon Co-Chair @AdamGabsiLDN speaking at the Third Annual @HAHealthyHomes Assembly about disability, housing, health and why accessibility is an investment, not a cost.
I was asked to speak at the Third Annual @HAHealthyHomes Assembly about accessible housing, the social model of disability and the false economy of getting things wrong today and paying for it tomorrow. @InclusionLondon youtu.be/8-bZ1d60Dz8?si=czm7…

Thank you @HinaBokhariLD for calling on @MayorofLondon to co-produce all aspects of the Oxford Street pedestrianisation project with Deaf and Disabled Londoners 👇
The Oxford Street Development Corporation must commit to co-production, not just "tick box" engagement. I'll continue to call for this as the Economy Committee investigates the impact of the Oxford Street pedestrianisation.
