On a personal note I'm writing my final Chairperson Report! I'll be stepping down as Chair tomorrow due to health. Thanks all, Jade
Our next meeting is tomorrow at 2pm, in the Grand Jury Room, Town Hall, Colchester. Minutes/agenda on our website: fa2c.org/documents
Our meetings for the next year are now confirmed and can be found on our website: fa2c.org/meetings
Thank you to @FryLegal, @LucyAngus_Unity and Andrew Hogan our barrister for all being fantastic and all their hard work.
Our case was heard at the High Court yesterday. The judgement was reserved - so we won't know the results for around two weeks.
Well done @UnityLaw on winning your case against First Buses. Hopefully wheelchair users won't have the fear of being left behind anymore
angliaruskincommunity.eventbrite.co.uk This looks awesome, particularly Laugh with Terri. If you're in Chelmsford, please check it out!
Jade, the Chair of the group has written a blog post: chronicchronicles.co.uk/blog/2013/08/2…
Putting together the agenda for Tuesday's meeting. Got an item you'd like me to include? Let me know asap! Thanks.
Have been in hibernation for weeks having a flare up and filling in ESA50. A correlation? Most certainly! Very stressful. Off to post it
If you have any access issues at Colchester General Hospital or Essex County Hospital - plz let me know by Friday. [email protected].
More volunteers have come forward for our stall at the Food and Drink Festival. More needed though - anyone can help! Pls get in touch!
The North East branch of @FSBEssex have been in touch to ask to meet up and work together. Looking forward to it!
I'm meeting with @ColchesterNHSFT on Friday to discuss access and issues with the Pain Clinic.
Have agreed to refresh our logo and also make our names official. We are now 'Fair Access to Colchester' and 'FA2C' when shortening.
BHS have agreed to put an alternative in place to the blue lighting in the toilets many were finding difficult. Very positive result.
We had a visitor from BHS head office, guest speaker from Walk Colchester and lots of access issues to work on.
