Activities of the Disabled Londoners' forum include:
- Encouraging partners to improve access for disabled people to key health and social care services, premises and information.
- Supporting the London Works for Better Health programme, building on the 'Inspire' research and the Greater London Action on Disability (GLAD) Synergy project, to reduce health inequalities among disabled people through employment and enterprise practices - see LHC Challenge 1
- Encouraging targeted prevention and screening programmes for disabled people and in particular for disabled women.
- Developing initiatives to support young disabled people in accessing health services independently, and to provide personal development planning.
The Greater London Authority and London Development Agency are supporting this priority.
