VCSE session sharing best practice on digital inclusion & health inequalities around visual impairment, shaping London Health Mission work.

This event wants to bring together VCSE organisations working with residents who are visually impaired across London to feed into the work of the London Health Mission Board around digital inclusion and health inequalities.

The Health Mission wants to “Significantly close the gap in health inequalities in our city, utilising London's innovation and digital transformation opportunities by 2035”. We know that the Voluntary and Community Sector holds a huge amount of expertise in this area and we are keen to learn from you what works and should be scaled and supported.

Residents with visual impairments have been identified by partner organisation DEMOS as particularly affected by digital excusion, through their recent reaserch and scoping exercise.

We are inviting charities and community organisations supporting them to share best practice on overcoming digital inclusion barriers, hear updates from the GLA London Health Mission Board and related research, and help shape future priorities and approaches for addressing digital exclusion in homelessness services.

Policymakers (including GLA colleagues) and funders will also be invited.
