Adrian Whyatt et al....
Can you inform me why this meeting has never taken place with the BCODP and
other organisations mentioned? It's now 10 months since I proposed this
multi-agency meeting and nothing has happened at all. Why has the BCODP not
contacted us both on this important matter?
How many of the organisations and individuals got in touch with you? None
got in touch with me, especially BAR Council, Law Society, HMCS/DfCA,
National Probation Service, Liberty etc who informed me after I spent hours
on the phone 'with-them', at great personal cost to myself on my mobile,
that they would make contact with your good self as the facilitator of this
meeting.
See my orginal email included below l sent on this matter on 3/6/06 as
follows:-

Urgent meeting to be called and organised within the representative
individual voices and organisations within the disabled people's, survivors,
neurodiversity, independent and inclusive living movements.
'Disabled People and Justice' in the Courts and legal advocacy'
***Urgent meeting to be called and organised within the representative
individual voices and organisations within the disabled people's, survivors,
neurodiversity, independent and inclusive living movements.
As many of you may be well informed by now, that Adrian Whyatt and I are in
the early process of trying to set-up and organise a 'working-group' within
the disabled people's, survivors, neurodiversity, independent and inclusive
living movement to discuss the continued disability discrimination and basic
human and civil rights abuses disabled people are experiencing with legal
advocates and within the Courts and Adrian and I believe now that it's
important time that a dialogue is urgenly called upon to address all these
issues that we disabled people experiencing within our basic human and civil
rights to 'natural-justice' with the various representative public bodies,
including the BAR Council, Her Majesty's Court Service, Law Society, Howard
League Penal Trust, National Probation Service, Liberty and many others
around 'Disabled People and Justice' in the Courts and problems experienced
with legal advocates.
This dialogue and any arranged meetings will be fully under the control and
orgainised by all the representative individual voices and organisations
within the disabled people's, survivors, neurodiversity, independent and
inclusive living movements, under 'nothing about us, without us'. Not the
charities who state they are representing 'our' voices, but all the 100%
'user-led' organisations. 'The Real Voice!!', under 'Nothing about us,
Without us'.
This is a very important basic human and civil rights project and if you
want to be involved then can you please correspond wity Mr Adrian Whyatt,
who is co-ordinatinating all the names of all interested individuals, public
bodies and others.
Adrian email address is:- [log in to unmask], or he can be telephoned

Can you please pass on this email to relevant person for 'diversity and

Justice help for disabled people Conference in West Midlands
If they want to create equality of opportunities to justice for all disabled
people, then West Midlands CPS need to make changes to their equal
opportunities procedures and practices and 'go-beyond' equal opportunties
'policies' by actually start being more pragmatic in making correspondence
for all disabled people more easily accessible to us by creating an 'email'
correspondence address. That would be a positive start. See below:-
