Community Learning Disability Team for people with learning disabilities

About the service

The Community Learning Disability Team (CLDT) is for people with learning disabilities and works with people and carers to promote independence. They offer advice and support to people on every aspect of living with a learning disability, including:

• making choices, finding employment and being more independent
• healthy eating advice, health action plans and looking after yourself
• getting the most out of local health and social services
• budgeting and direct payments
• meeting other people and taking part in activities
• learning new skills
• short breaks for you and your carer

Learning disability services are run in people's homes, health centres, nursing homes, and residential homes throughout Barnet, Hammersmith & Fulham, Kensington & Chelsea, and Westminster.
