Planning for the next 10 years of the NHS

Meetings about how people with a learning disability or autism will be included in the plan

People with a learning disability and people with autism are included as one of the important priorities for the NHS in the next 10 years.

NHS England are working with Learning Disability England to hold 7 meetings to talk about what needs to be in the plan.

The ideas for the plan will be based on the work so far and what people have said is important or needs to happen next.

The meetings will talk about the work that has happened so far on making health services better, Transforming Care, Learning from deaths reviews (LeDeR) and other important work.

We will talk about what has worked and what hasn’t, as well as the evidence from research or numbers.

Below you will find more details about these events:

NHS England has decided not to make the events bigger and there is not time to run anymore before the plan has to be written at the end of September.

LTP webinar on the 17th Sept 1-3pm

The NHS has been asked to set out a long-term plan for its future by Autumn 2018. This will involve setting out its ambitions for improvement over the next decade, and how it will meet these plans over the five years of the funding settlement.

As autism has been identified as one of the top clinical priorities for the NHS, we would like to invite you to take part in this webinar which is part of a wider conversation about how autism will be prioritised in the NHS England Long Term Plan.
