People with Learning Disabilities from Greenwich

Who are we?

We are a group of people who volunteer once a week. We come together to talk about Oxleas services to make them better and more accessible. Our aim is to help people with learning disabilities and their carers to feel less isolated. We want to be more involved in our community. We think people underestimate people with learning disabilities.

Previous Projects:

First Impressions: We looked at what service users want from the first time they go to CLDT

CASH Clinics: We talked to CASH staff about how to speak to people with LD about sexual health.

Staying safe in the community:  Tips for people with LD to stay safe in the community.

Top Tips: Tips for how doctors should treat people with Learning Disabilities.
