People in Torbay with Learning Disabilities, their Support Workers, Family, Carers and health and social care workers are being asked to give their views on a new Learning Disability Strategy.
The Big Plan for Torbay is Torbay Council’s plan to help make a positive difference to the lives of people with a learning disability of all ages.
The Big Plan has been split into six areas:
§ Community & Independence
§ Home
§ Health
§ Care & Support
§ Safety
§ Family, Friends & Carers
Councillor Hayley Tranter, Cabinet Member for Adult and Community Services, said: “We are committed to improving the lives of people with Learning Disabilities in Torbay and we want as many people to give us their views on The Big Plan as possible – whether it’s people with a Learning Disability, their family and friends, Support Workers, NHS and care workers, volunteers, and charities working with people with Learning Disabilities, or any other interested stakeholder.”
