May Newsletter
A good part of this month was taken up with producing the draft of the U Can Do I.T. Annual Report (more on this in June)and a draft of funding applications.However May saw the last of the present style advertisements in Transport for All magazine, together with some great coverage of our free computer deal with REALISE IT, via City West Homes. City West is the managing agent of Westminster Councils housing stock, and produced some
really good coverage for us in their Residents Choice magazine.The free computer offer is for the present limited to disabled residents in the City of London, Southwark, Lambeth & Westminster.
Other coverage for the organisation included Ealing Council Special Needs, Harrow Association for the disabled
and Kingston Centre for Independent Living"s High Flyer magazine.
Chris also had meetings with Sue Hughes at Connections South, who deal with young people between the ages of 13-19 (25 in the case of disabled people)- this is an age group where we are under represented in student terms. He also met
Sophie Chater, the employment officer for RNID London, and finalised the handover of training work in 5 resource centres previously handled by Aspire, who want to focus more on their original remit of helping people with spinal cord injuries.
