The Big Fat Housing Chat

Disability Sheffield and Sheffield Voices have teamed up with Change in Leeds who are campaigning with Shelter about housing issues that affect people with learning disabilities. Shelter is an organisation that supports people who are at risk of being homeless.
Big Fat Housing Chat
This event is for anyone with a learning disability and for anyone who supports people or provides accommodation to people with a learning disability, and we would like to add your story about housing to the campaign.

This could be either:-
• Someone providing supported living
• The Local Authority
• A Housing Association
• A Care Provider
• A person with a Learning Disability either living at home, living on your own, living with other people.

We will be collecting stories on the day and there will be an opportunity for you to talk on camera about your experiences, if you would like to be part of a short film we would like to make.

There will be speakers from Shelter and a people with lived experiences recounting their stories.

We will provide a FREE lunch. If you have any dietary requirements such as Dairy Free or Gluten Free, please let Kathryn Littlewood know on 01142536746 or email her at kathryn.littlewood@disabilitysheffield.org.uk

The event is being held on the 1st September and it will run from 10.00 am through to 3.30 pm and is being held at The Circle, Sheffield. You can register via Eventbrite or alternatively you can call or email Kathryn to book a place. Please leave a message as Kathryn is not always at her desk.

A fantastic presentation thought provoking and good questions from the floor around promoting this film/message to the general public not just professionals.

When I moved to Sheffield nearly five years ago it was my "go to" organisation. I expect it to stay that way. All the staff and volunteers seem to pull out little gems of effort that disabled people like me couldn't do without. Professionally and personally - I love em :)

Disability Sheffield is a forward-thinking, energetic organisation doing a lot of positive work in Sheffield. I have no doubt they will continue to do so for a long time to come.
