Learning Disabilities
Specialist services for adults with a learning disability in Sheffield are provided by the Joint Learning Disabilities Service. Both Sheffield City Council and Sheffield Health and Social Care NHS Foundation Trust provide these services as a single joint learning disabilities service. We are working to make sure that the vision people with learning disabilities and their family carers have for their lives, becomes a reality.
Further useful information about the Joint Learning Disabilities Service can be found on the Signpost Sheffield website at: www.signpostsheffield.org.uk
