NATIONAL PANEL WEBINAR

DWP Disability Services are advocates for Disability Services benefits and grants across the country, including Personal Independence Payment, Disability Living Allowance and Industrial Injuries Disablement Benefit.

They offer a series of awareness and upskilling sessions for the areas of Disability Services which stakeholders can register and book onto via Eventbrite links.

This new service, delivered by Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust (CNWL) provides free, friendly, and confidential support for young people aged 9–25 who are living with or affected by alcohol or drug issues. 

The focus is on overall wellbeing and prevention including sexual health promotion and greater whole-family support. 

How to get in touch: 

Nourish Hub's Womens Book Club is a free, warm, welcoming space where women can come together, enjoy a hot drink, and talk about books. No pressure, just friendly conversation and connections. Whether someone is a lifelong reader or just starting their reading journey, everyone is welcome.

The imminent launch of the Ending Homelessness in Communities Fund (EHCF) represents a new opportunity for Voluntary & Community Frontline Sector (VCFS) organisations to apply for up to three years of grant funding across both Capital and Revenue streams to support and develop their work supporting people experiencing homelessness. It represents a shift in funding for the Housing Justice shelter network and the wider VCFS.

✨Young Collective (YC) Programme:  

Young Collective is a free programme of monthly sessions from April – November 2026, at the Mosaic Rooms with a lead artist exploring themes of authorship, seeding, nurture, play, co-creation and the collective.
