We are a team of experienced learning disability nurses and assistant practitioners.
We are able to offer a service when a child or young person requires specialist support arising from their learning disability or autism and its impacts on their health. We often do this by working to advise parents or other health professionals working with that child.

Children aged up to 18 years:
- with global development delay or learning disabilities
