We want:
To talk to you about what is happening in your local community to improve care for people with learning disabilities
Get your advice on how to speak to people with learning disabilities about this work

4. What is the plan to improve care?
These people wrote plan called “Building the right support”.

5. The plan says, people with learning disabilities must be supported to:
Live where they choose
Get support with their health in the community
Get health treatment near their home when they need it
Only stay in hospital for as long as they need to.

The Transforming Care Partnership is made up of people who are in charge of local services.
These are
Clinical Commissioning Groups

NHS England
Carers
A Transforming Care Partnership has been set up in each area of London

What areas do we cover?
Croydon
Kingston
Merton
Richmond
Sutton

8. Why are we working on Transforming Care Partnership?
Lots of people in special hospitals are far away from their friends and family
And sometimes people stay longer in these special hospitals than they should do

9. Our aims
We want to support people in their homes and reduce the number of special hospitals
We want people to get support in the community, helping families to stay together in the areas they know
We want people to get the right treatment closer to where they live

10. We know…
51 people from south west London are in special hospitals. These hospitals are not in south west London
6 of these people are under the age of 18

11. People must be at the centre of our plans
We need to work together with people who have Learning Disabilities and/or autism so that services are better in the future

12. How we are working together
1. Wider reference group – we have formed a group of local organisations and carers to tell us their experiences
2. We would also like to talk to people who use services – and we need your help.

13. What we need your help with…
1. Who to speak to?
People in special hospitals
People who use community services
Carers
Advocates
2. Where should we go?
Day centres
Drop ins
Supported living
3. How?

Working with peer advocates
Who else should we speak to? Would it be a good idea to speak to Doctors/Nurses? Support staff?
