Learning Disability Briefing
This report describes the needs of people in East Sussex who have learning disabilities, identifying the health inequalities experienced by this group compared to the general population. It analyses the evidence available for people with learning disabilities within East Sussex County Council and health partners, combined with nationally published statistics and research materials. The evidence base looks at current literature and East Sussex intelligence about the prevalence and trends in special educational needs and/or disability.
This report will be used to inform local strategy around support for people with learning disabilities.
