people with learning disabilities travel around.
Bring people together from across the North East to
share ideas and the work we are doing.
Have a stronger voice in saying how to make travel
better for people with learning disabilities.
Work on projects we think will help people with
learning disabilities travel around more easily.
We meet four times a year.

Decide what we want to work on in 2016.
Review the North East Talking Travel Network terms
of reference. These tell us how we will work.
