Councillors welcome Sunnybank Trust consultancy "Understand Us"

Councillors were pleased to welcome the "Understand Us" consultancy team from The Sunnybank Trust to Epsom & Ewell Borough Council.

The team spoke to Councillors about the services they provide that help businesses to be more inclusive, with accessible information, training and consultancy.

Councillor Clive Woodbridge, Chair of the Community & Wellbeing Committee, said: “Epsom & Ewell Borough Council has a long relationship with the Sunnybank Trust.

The work the charity does across our borough, and beyond, to support adults with learning disabilities to find their voice, develop confidence, and create new opportunities, is so important.

I'm very grateful to the Understand Us team, who ran such informative sessions with both Councillors and staff, for taking the time to show us what they can do for businesses to help them become more inclusive.

I look forward to continuing to work together to ensure that the services that Epsom & Ewell Borough Council provide are accessible and inclusive to everyone in our community.”
