Great discussions at our Challenging Inequalities Toolkit event
Kay Carter (centre), our Inequalities Toolkit Project Lead, talking with attendees at our November event.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined and contributed, your insights and reflections made the session truly valuable. Looking forward to building on this momentum!
Our Challenging Inequalities event took place yesterday at the Jean Stokes Community Centre. We were delighted to welcome a diverse group of participants, representing organisations keen to share their recent successes in making services equitable.
We heard presentations from the Maya Centre and Rehabit. Islington Mind spoke about their work on the Challenging Inequalities Toolkit. We were also lucky enough to welcome the Head of Visual Communications at the Royal College of Art, who shared some reflections on effective communication.
The table discussions were lively and energetic. It is so encouraging to see how the toolkit is supporting organisations to make genuine changes to start to address systemic challenges.
Next steps
The date for the next meeting of our challenging inequalities group is 12 February 2026. For the first time, we will be extending the invitation to organisations outside Islington to help us build an even larger community of practice. To find out more contact kay@healthwatchislington.co.uk
