Thank you and Merry Christmas

Thank you to everyone who has been involved in any way with the project work and campaigning Pro Active Community members have led on this past year.

With the commitment and support from partners and other care providers, members have been able to share lived experience on a number of key projects:-

• Co-producing Learning Disability Awareness training for Student Midwives at University of Surrey

• Dementia in adults with learning disability research with University of Kent

• Cancer Screening and outcomes for adults with learning disability with University of Glasgow

• Campaigning for a Disability Taxi Charter with LDE members and Surrey People’s Group

• Developing a Co-production Impact reporting web tool with SCIE

• Working with Three Hands and a major high street bank to improve banking facilities for adults with learning disabilities

• Steering Panel members in a Drugs & Alcohol Awareness training for adults with learning disability.

Thank you to all our sponsors, fund donors or partners too for everything they have enabled to happen this year:- the Coronation tea for over 100 people, a visit to Brighton Sealife, the i360 and a celebration lunch, a Christmas party for over 100 people with a live performer, advocacy training development, sexual health and relationship management training, and all the kindness everyone has shared in making the past year full of chances to live gloriously ordinary lives to the full.
