What is the Partnership Board?

The Nottingham City Learning Disability Partnership Board was set up in October 2001.

It is about getting everyone to work together.

There are usually 6 meetings a year.

About 30 people come to the meetings:

• People with learning disabilities.
• Family carers
• City Councillors
• People from Adult Social Care and Health
• People from NHS Health services
• People from education
• People from employment
• People from housing
• People from voluntary services and charities
• People independent care providers

The Co-Chairs

Maggie Harty is one of the Co-Chairs of the Board.

Lousie frettingham recently decided not to be a Co-Chair anymore. There will be a new Co-Chair soon.

Why do we have a Partnership Board?

In 2001 the Government wrote a report called 'Valuing People'. This year there has been another report called 'Valuing People Now'.

These reports had ideas in about making life better for people with learning disabilities.

The Partnership Board was set up to make sure that these ideas happen in Nottingham.
