CLASP stands for Caring, Listening And Supporting Partnership. It is a self-advocacy group for people with learning disabilities in the Wokingham borough.
John writes: "Yesterday I spent an hour talking to Wokingham’s CLASP group.
"They raised a range of issues with me about the response to the virus, service for those with learning difficulties, use of public transport and the role of the Council.
"They asked me to tell them about the range of work and problems I deal with as local MP. I encouraged them to use my website.
"I would like to thank all involved in this charity for the work they do. I promised to take up a couple of matters for them on receipt of the details."
CLASP posted on facebook:
"CLASP were fortunate today to have John Redwood join our Zoom chat.
"Sir John told us about his career, his passion for his responsibility to the Wokingham Community and how he uses his website to post problems of the day.
"CLASP posed some interesting questions about support for the Learning Disability Community, and mental health.
"It was a great session."
