RUNNYMEDE ACCESS LIAISON GROUP

Chairman Jonathan L. Fisher 10 Runnymede Court High Street Egham Surrey TW20 9AA Tel. 01784 435622 Or by e-mail jlf@jlfisher.demon.co.uk

The group was set up by the Borough Council in 1991 to advise them on access to Runnymede's public buildings and facilities such as Civic Offices, Public halls, Parks and Day Centres.

The chairmanship is shared between Jonathan Fisher and Mike Fuller.

We have meetings approximately 5/6 times per year and we are unusual in that we carry out visits to sites to do audits. Our next meeting will be on 25th September.

The things we look at on our Audits include such issues as:

As you can see from the list our Audits are comprehensive, however at the moment my group is going through a crisis in regard to meetings and Audit attendance, which could mean our invaluable Audits may cease.

This is why we need more members in key areas such as:

The group runs on a voluntary basis and has limited funding, but if you have trouble getting to meetings we can look into paying travel expenses.

If you are interested in joining our group and making a real difference, please contact Jonathan Fisher, I am happy to receive e-mail or written, (preferably printed) comments at my home address:
