Tower Hamlets Pan-Disability Panel
The Tower Hamlets Pan Disability Panel (THPDP) provides deaf and
disabled people and others interested in disability issues with an
opportunity to shape local services. These include housing,
transport, education, training, employment, access to leisure,
health and support services and many others.
The THPDP provides the Council and its
partners with access to people whose lives are affected by
disability, enabling them to listen to views and opinions when
developing and commissioning services.
Members of the THPDP can commit to regular
meetings where they discuss local disability related issues. Themed
subgroups meet and work with the wider local community. The themed
subgroups then make informed recommendations to the Council and its
partners. The subgroup themes are based on One Tower Hamlets
and the Community Plan themes.
Members of the THPDP can also get involved in
a way that suits them. If they don’t want to make a regular
commitment to meetings, other ways to get involved include email,
telephone, postal survey and attending focus groups and
events. This aspect of involvement is managed by a market
research company SMSR on behalf of the Consultation and Involvement
Team.
