Media and Partnerships

Flat 108 has been a key resource for students of West Gate School and Ashfield Academy who have featured in a short film about the service. We also featured on the BBC in 2016 when we were awarded funding from Children in Need! We’d also like to mention Big Mouth Forum which gives a voice to disabled young people in Leicester.
