University of Bristol: Learning Disabilities Mortality Review

Summary

The Learning Disabilities Mortality Review (LeDeR) Programme is a world-first. It is the first national programme of its kind aimed at making improvements to the lives of people with learning disabilities. The University of Bristol is one of the partners in the programme, which is funded and run by NHS England. Reviews of deaths are being carried out with a view to improve the standard and quality of care for people with learning disabilities. People with learning disabilities, their families and carers have been central to developing and delivering the programme.
