Pillar 2: Getting to where I need to be
Thriving Neighbourhoods underpin our vision for Stockport. Getting out and about is vital for us all to feel a part of our communities and do the things we want to do independently. People with Learning Disabilities told us how important this was to them and how they want to support developments.
You said we want:
- to be able to travel safely around Stockport like everyone else
- people who work in public transport to know about what is a Learning Disability and what reasonable adjustments are
- to influence public transport across Stockport
- support to learn how to be safe in my community
Next steps:
- develop the travel training offer
- provide advice and information of different transport options available
- work with people with a learning disability to plan with them how to achieve their aspirations about using public transport
- support awareness raising about what is a learning disability and reasonable adjustments
