“We contacted Victoria and raised concerns about local incidents of disability hate crime affecting young people who use our services back in 2014.
Not only did Victoria work locally to address this, she went on to commission a Disability Hate Crime Report ‘Hidden Hate’ which highlighted significant under-reporting across London.
Her work helped to embed Disability Hate Crime in the ‘Safer Places’ Campaign in Kensington and Chelsea and gave those affected the confidence to report incidents.
Thank you for your contribution Victoria.”Sue Redmond, Joint Chair Full of Life, June 2019
“Victoria’s contributions to our community through the years have been enormous. She worked with the voluntary sector to organise two huge events held in the Kensington Town Hall, which gave older residents of the Borough a unique and memorable experience.
Tea for the Queen was the largest indoor event celebrating the Queen’s 90th birthday in the country and gave over 360 of our elderly residents an unforgettable experience. The Vote 100 Community Tea, commemorated 100 years of women having received the vote and was attended by more than 300 elderly members from our diverse communities.
Thank you Victoria.”Zara Ghods, Kensington and Chelsea Forum, June 2019
“I am writing to thank you with the utmost sincerity for your assistance when I was researching for my dissertation project. Thank you for your time; your knowledge and first-hand experience of the campaigns was absolutely instrumental in completing my research and helped me to create a piece of work that I am incredibly proud of.
I wanted to get in touch to let you know that, with your help, my dissertation received a 1st class grade. I was also awarded 1st Class Honours for my degree in Politics and Parliamentary Studies. Since then, I was granted a place on the Civil Service Fast Stream.
