We would like to invite you to a meeting of the Wandsworth Mobility Forum on Thursday 30th September 2010, from 2 to 4pm. Tea, coffee and biscuits will be available from 1.30pm, so please arrive early.

The Mobility Forum provides an opportunity for elderly and disabled people to comment about transport in Wandsworth and to hear from transport operators and the Council about what is being done to make travelling more accessible.

The agenda for the Forum is still being prepared, but it is likely to include the Council’s Local Implementation Plan (LIP), improvements to railway stations, particularly Clapham Junction, Wandsworth Town and Earlsfield, an update on bus and Dial-a-Ride issues, and the results of a borough wide survey about the transport experiences of people with learning disabilities in Wandsworth.

The meeting is being held at the Wandsworth Civic Suite, next to the Town Hall building. The Civic Suite can be accessed via a ramp from Wandsworth High Street. From the entrance there is a lift to the first floor where the meeting will be held. Limited parking may be available, but you will need to phone us first to check.

Please contact John Slaughter (Senior Transport Planner) on 020 8871 6293 if you would like to attend the Forum, have any special needs (including dietary), and/or any questions about the Forum. If you wish to raise a question at the meeting, it would be useful to let us know by 16th September, so that we can pass it on to those best able to answer it.

Minutes of the last Forum on 10th February will be available shortly: please contact us if you would like a copy. Alternatively, they will be viewable on the website of Wandsworth Access Association, http://www.wandsworthaccess.org.uk/12.html

If you require transport to the venue please contact Wandsworth Community Transport on 020 8675 7460 by 24 September 2010.
