Valuing People was the first Government White Paper to deal specifically with people who have a learning disability for 30 years when it was published in 2001. Valuing People has now been reviewed and the latest information Valuing People Now was issued in January 2009. For the latest information click here. There are easy read versions of all the documents on this website link.
It covers lots of the important areas in peoples lives - where they live, getting a job, the benefits they are entitled to and much more.
The Valuing People website is a good place to look for information about what is going on both locally and nationally.
There is a specific section on health and a subsection for mental health.
