Support in West Berks or Reading?

Hi All,

Does anyone know any useful communities (online or in person) in West Berks or Reading? In particular for questions on housing for adults with learning disabilities.

Thanks in advance!

Alternatively you could try speaking to one of the family consultants, Gail Hanrahan and Liz Wilson. I’m sure they’ll have experience they could share with you. They can be contacted through the following web page: https://www.dimensions-uk.org/families/ask-liz/

Hopefully other Choice Forum members will have other suggestions.
