Learning disabilities

Local Area Co-ordination (LAC)

Our Local Area Co-ordination (LAC) team provides a service to adults (18 years old and upwards) who have a learning disability, including young people who are coming to the end of their time at high school to plan for the future.

They also support adults who experience mental-ill health where acknowledged mental health difficulties are affecting quality of life, adults with a physical disability and older adults.

How can I be referred to the LAC service?

Anyone can refer. We also accept self-referrals.

It's important that anyone working with us has a willingness and ability to engage with the service. Please note that we aren’t able to provide personal care or moving and handling support.
