Launch of new Helping People Thrive booklet

Helping People Thrive is a new practical guide looking at how to transform the lives of people with a learning disability and/or autistic people who have been detained in hospital or in long term segregation for too long.

The Department of Health and Social Care has worked with Baroness Sheila Hollins to bring together stories from people who have experienced the system. They show how it is possible to create a new and satisfying life in the community.

These stories show us that we can really change things if we learn from what people get right. And they give us hope that a good future is not only possible but achievable.
