Learning Disability Partnership (LDP)
- If you have a learning disability diagnosis, we can provide health support
- We can also provide social care support if you need this higher level of help. Find out about social care assessment and eligibility.
With the right help, everyone with a learning disability can achieve their goals.

Day services
We offer specialist services to meet a wide range of needs.

- Short-term residential care
We can provide short breaks so that carers can have a break.
Shared Lives scheme
Shared Lives provides short breaks within a family setting. The scheme supports adults to learn independence within their own communities. People can also be supported in a permanent placement.
Supported living
Where a person decides to live independently, we make sure they have support to stay safe.
Residential care
If supported living is not appropriate for you, we can help look into residential care.
Young adults team
The young adults team is part of the Learning Disability Partnership (LDP). The team supports young people with a learning disability from age 18 until they transfer to their local LDP team. This is likely to be (but is not automatically) at the end of formal education.
Learning Disability Annual Health Check Scheme
People with learning disabilities often have poorer physical and mental health than other people. This doesn’t need to be the case.
Anyone aged 14 and over with a learning disability can have a health check every year.
You can find more information about Annual Health Checks on NHS Choices website.
Learning Disabilities Register
Mencap has information on joining the Learning Disability Register to get more support from your GP.
Learning Disabilities Mortality Review (LeDeR) Annual Report 2019-2020
The Learning Disabilities Mortality Review (LeDeR) is a national programme that aims to improve the lives of people with learning disabilities. The LeDeR Programme reviews the deaths of any person with a learning disability aged four years and over, with the outcomes and recommendations that come from these reviews being used to improve standards and quality of care, locally and nationally.
