The National Development Team for Inclusion (NDTi) was commissioned in 2019 by the South Regional Health Education England Intellectual Disabilities programme to find and share best practice in training people who work in NHS Trusts to support people with learning disabilities. The aim is to support staff development to help them achieve better outcomes when they are working with people with learning disabilities. Further information about the project can be found here.
We wanted to look at good examples of learning disability awareness training and we asked an organisation called The Oxfordshire Family Support Network about their ‘Working with Families’ workshop. The purpose of the workshop is to improve relationships between families and those professionals working in Adult Social Care. It is also about enhancing work with families as everybody is there because they want to improve services.
