Accessable formats

No response from Tower Hamlets yet.

Crocks and cheats

Is it me or are a lot of the people in Tower Hamlets into cheating the system and not doing anything like a decent days work?

Accessible information

Tower Hamlets like a number of public bodies can provide material in community languages but not in an accessable format for disabled people. I am still waiting for a response from those politically correct Unison scum bags.

Mystery shopping forums

This website includes a lot more besides mystery shopping like getting free stuff and making money from visitng websites. A lot of the stuff is good for Tower Hamlets .

Day centre joke

I have been told by someone that they were given a place at a day centre. They have no problems that they need a day centre for but there are other people in Tower Hamlets who have severe needs but don't have places or their time has been cut. What is going on in Tower Hamlets?

International day of disabled people

Museum of Childhood at about 10:AM on Friday 3rd December organised by Tower Hamlets Council.

Transport for all

I have heard a lot of interesting things about Tower Hamlets mainly that Crossrail is going to make transport better.

Lost and stolen CDs

It seems that a lot of CDs from audio books get lost or stolen by the good folk of Tower Hamlets. Luckily the Ideas Stores do replace them eventually.

Helpful

I am surprised that some Tower Hamlets Council workers have given me straight answers and have been helpful.

Friday closures

A large number of businesses in Tower Hamlets run by Muslims close for Friday prayers. I would not go to them personally as I want service all day long.

3 star joke

This is interesting. The man who gave Haringey 3 stars conducted desk research and he knew Sharon Shoesmith as he had worked under her as the former head of Haringey school standards. I wonder who gave 3 stars to Tower Hamlets.

International day of disabled people

As soon as I get the information from Tower Hamlets Council then I will let you know.

Haringey council

The Labour controlled unaccountable council are getting their just deserts at long last. They were so sorry over baby P that they have been all hiding like the cowards they are. Who cares they have 3 stars just like Tower Hamlets. I am a disabled person and I feel safe.

New organisation

This organisation has replaced THCEN in Tower Hamlets. It seems people were not told.

Bad behaviour

I have been told that a manager of a council service at Tower Hamlets who shall remain nameless and the service shall remain nameless has ignored the emails from someone who emailed them over a month ago. It seems that the donkeys at the council don't like difficult questions.

DAN AGM

The meeting for the AGM was very productive as the councilor answered all our questions but did admit there was some minor problems with the service. She was more helpful then the Director of the service who came to the last DAN meeting it was not an AGM. It seems that she is one of the good councilors in Tower Hamlets.

Way to go Lowri

Lowri Turner a woman who I must say says a few good things. She is now questioning the star system. Tower Hamlets has 3 stars under our former beloved leader Ian Wilson. We are safe.

No feedback

I contacted Tower Hamlets Council on Sunday and 4 working days later no feedback.

Housing benefit

I have been told that the housing benefit team at Tower Hamlets keep on losing paperwork.

High streets

I have been hearing from good sources that the number of customers in some shops in Tower Hamlets is down.

Yahoo group

This is a yahoo group for disabled people in Tower Hamlets.

Tower Hamlets Housing

Does anyone know what the criteria for disabled people is?

Good service

The Tower Hamlets Credit Union staff are good at their job and the service at Crisp Street is very good and unlike the banks no long wait.

Foundation Trust

The Barts and the London which provides the majority of NHS hospital services for Tower Hamlets is aiming to become an NHS Foundation Trust. Go and join them.

Mayor's fund

Hopefully Tower Hamlets will benefit from the Mayors Fund for London.

George Galloway

has he done anything for the people of Tower Hamlets?

Cafe

This is the freecycle cafe for Tower Hamlets. Not sure what it is there for exactly but I am a member.

Freecycle

This web page has a lot of information on it and a link to the local one. I am not sure how active it is in Tower Hamlets.

Strike

Remember that a lot of government offices will be closed down in Tower Hamlets and the rest of the country on November 10th as civil servants are going on strike.

Housing market

How is the housing market in Tower Hamlets doing?

Waste

If you have any information on waste by Tower Hamlets Council in particular besides it been a general waste of everything then contact me.

DAN AGM

I will be asking a senior member of Tower Hamlets Council how can they justify spending money on celebriting getting 3 stars whilst they are cutting money for services.
