Public Health England Learning Disabilities Conference 2016: Using primary care data to plan better services for people with learning disabilities, London, Tuesday, 15 March 2016

Tuesday 15th March 2016
9:00 AM - 4:00 PM
We are pleased to announce that the Public Health England, People with a Learning Disability conference will take place on Tuesday 15th March 2016 at the Kia Oval, London. The conference will launch the first round of a new set of national and local information about the health and care of people with learning disabilities.
The new data are taken from general practice information systems nationally. They have been obtained by a collaboration between Public Health England, NHS England and the Health and Social Care Information Centre.

The conference includes keynote presentations and break-out sessions. Plenary sessions will be co-chaired by a Tina Walker, Health Representative of the National Forum for People with Learning Disabilities and Professor Julia Verne from Public Health England.

This conference is particularly aimed at health and social care professionals, public health staff, commissioners, people with a learning disability, their families and carers, researchers and third sector representatives. Please note - this conference is largely about data, and although we aim to make it as accessible as possible, some of the information will be complex.
