Making it personal : our Social Care Charter

We believe people with learning disabilities or autism should have equal chances to live the life they choose. We put together a Social Care Charter with the people we support.

The Social Care Charter tells everyone what people want to be able to live the life they choose. The people we support decided on five things they believe are the most important. We called these pledges.

We asked everyone, including MPs, to support this charter, ensuring that the needs of people with a learning disability and autism are central to any social reform and social care commissioning. Pledge your support today!

If we can deliver these promises, we will make a positive and lasting difference to people’s lives.

At a round table in Parliament last June, people we support with learning disabilities and autism set out their top five priorities when it comes to social care enabling them to lead lives to their full potential. People we support have been playing an active role in raising awareness of the charter and have secured over 2,000 signatures of support including from a number of MPs, social care providers, umbrella groups, other people with learning disabilities and autism and the wider public.

Next steps and outcomes of the charter.
