One Newham Networks

One Newham member organisations are planning to create a network focused on the needs of older people in Newham. In due course community and voluntary sector groups who provide support and services aimed at older people or are lead by older people in Newham will be invited to join the network. Please contact info@onenewham.org.uk if interested.

Residents United Forum is a collective of Newham voluntary and community sector organisations focused on providing a voice for deaf and disabled people in Newham, and their carers. The group regards disability as any disability including mental health, learning disability or difficulty, substance abuse, HIV and hidden disabilities. The ultimate aim of the group is to create a Centre for Independent Living in Newham and to become registered as a Deaf and Disabled People's Organisation. The group is in the early stages of development and will in due course be letting people know how to join. Please contact info@onenewham.org.uk for more information at this stage.
