Commissioning Strategy for People with Learning Disabilities


This strategy sets out how Health and Social Care will work together and with other partners to deliver better outcomes for people with learning disabilities, increasing choice and control and supporting them to remain living in their communities. The focus of the strategy is adults and young people aged 14+ with learning disabilities.

Put simply, our shared vision is for all people with learning disabilities to have a good life in their community with the right support from the right people at the right time.
