Future planning for our adults with a learning disability is particularly complex and there are lots of different aspects to consider.

 

Come along on 2nd November for expert advice on wills and trusts from our friends at Royal Mencap Society. 

​

Please note that, due to the sensitive nature of the topic, this session is only open to carers.

December Carers Connect

​

Scams and fraud schemes are always evolving and adults with a learning disability are sadly more vulnerable to these crimes.

​

On 7th December, we'll be joined by David Gillies, a Counter Fraud Specialist from the Essex and Kent Serious Crime Directorate, who will be telling us about the latest scams, how to stay safe online - and what to do if you have concerns.

​

David will also be showcasing a new video book about the issues.

​

This session is open to adults with a learning disability, parents, carers and professionals.
