Disability Information Day – Thursday 2nd March.

By

We are holding our annual Disability Information Day on Thursday 2nd March. This event is a joint project with Parents in Partnership (the parent carer forum), NHS colleagues and Childrens Services.
Last year the event was held at Blackburn College, this year we are hoping to have even more stalls, so are in King Georges Hall. We will be having a designated Transition/Preparing for Adulthood section as well as our usual NHS, local and voluntary services.
The event will be open from 12pm to 5pm, so you can pop in after work, school or college and find out more about what’s available for children, families and adults with any kind of additional need/disability in Blackburn with Darwen.
It is free to enter, we had some fantastic feedback last year and are looking forward to another successful event this year!”
