The event is aimed at disabled residents, their families/carers, and relevant organisations. There will be presentations on behalf of West Berkshire Council, service providers, and voluntary sector partners followed by a Q&A session. For this first meeting, we will be focusing on physical accessibility. The council would like to hear about residents' experience of their physical environment, the barriers they face, and how access and inclusivity can be improved, with feedback being used to help to shape services and infrastructure the district.

The event will be at the Council Offices, Market Street, Newbury, RG14 5LD, 1030-12:30 on 6 August.
