We have compiled a series of brief leaflets on topics that you will face as a carer for a person with a learning difficulty.

These leaflets aim to highlight issues that you need to be aware of and signpost you toward appropriate support.

Leaflets are continually updated following feedback from families and we value you views.

Printed copies are available on request and pdf copies are held online below. Please let us know your views and leave any comments as we aim to improve these flyers as and when circumstances or legislation change.
