Consultancy and courses from the Foundation for People with Learning Disabilities

FPLD team

We are a dynamic team of experienced practitioners, managers, researchers, self advocates and family experts working with organisations across the UK and internationally.

 

We use research, knowledge of good practice and policy to deliver tailor-made consultancy services.

We undertake development work to improve services and staff performance. We run regular events to promote good practice, share the outcomes of our work and encourage new ideas.

 

Our staff and consultants have substantial expertise in the field of learning disabilities. We are innovative, flexible and creative. We work with Local Authorities, the voluntary and private sector, the National Health Service, parent groups and self advocates to improve services and promote tailor-made solutions.

 

We offer competitive consultancy rates, based on agreed daily charges.
