Kingston's Disability Network

Kingston Disability Network is an inclusive network bringing together individuals and organisations to create a collective stronger voice for those with disabilities to achieve positive outcomes such as:

• Raising awareness on disabilities
• Offering a platform to engage
• Sharing of knowledge and experience
• Stakeholder networking and collaboration to create greater community collaboration

Background

Kingston is one of 13 London boroughs to be awarded funding from the GLA and London Councils as part of their Supporting London Boroughs Engagement Project.  The aim of the project is to work with communities to ensure that Londoners’ voices are heard and for participating boroughs to share any learning with all London boroughs. 

The Kingston Disability Network has been created to raise awareness of disability issues, provide an opportunity to share knowledge and experience and offer a platform for engagement. 

Launch of the network 

The network was officially launched on 16 November 2023 at an event at FUSEBOX, a multi-arts space for young people, on the riverside in Kingston town centre. You can find out more about the event on our news story.
