Caring Communities of Change will put learning disability family carers at the heart of service design and delivery across Health and Social Care in Wales.
As a result of partnerships with carer-led networks and other organisations we will co-produce, pilot and scale up innovative and practical solutions to meet the needs of the learning disability family carers and their families.
What is Co-production?
