MP receives warm welcome at Homerton Space Project

10 DEC 2010

MP

Local MP for the London Borough of Hackney, Rt Hon Meg Hillier, visited Chapter 1's supported housing project Homerton Space at Chelmer Road on Friday 10th December 2010. During her visit Meg met with Project Director Lilieth Martin, as well as other support workers and service users.

Meg was shown the main areas of the project and a presentation on it's history was also given. She also took time out of her schedule to sit down with some service users and offer advice on a range of subject matters. It is kind acts like this that prompted staff at Homerton to invite her to the project as she had previously assisted two service users with immigration and Housing Benefit issues.

The hard working team at Homerton Space Project are encouraged by the support they receive from the local community and its representative, and both staff and residents showed their appreciation for the support and visit from their local MP.
