We recently attended the Stadium of Light to deliver an awareness session in relation to the health needs of people with learning disability and autism to hundreds of doctors and nurses in Sunderland who were at their monthly time in time out session.
The session went well and we would like to offer a huge thank you to both Beverley Brown and Matthew Rutherford who spoke form the heart and were very professional.
There has now been an easy read information leaflet developed for primary care to give to a patient with learning disabilities where they feel an urgent 2 week referral is required for urgent tests. This can be very confusing for people and this leaflet will help the person to understand what to expect.
Members of the community treatment team for learning disabilities are hosting a charity evening on the 8th of September at the Alexandra Pub in Grangetown, Sunderland.
