Disabled people will highlight the the difficulties they face in Hackney when they are joined on a walk by Hackney councillors, MPs and London Assembly members this Friday (December 3).

Disabled adults living in Hackney are invited to join the walks which will take place in Stoke Newington Church Street, another from The Narroway to Mare Street in Hackney Central, and another at Well Street market, South Hackney.
