Learning Disability Wellbeing Service
About Us
People who have a learning disability often have poor physical health compared with those who don't have a learning disability. The wellbeing service works to raise awareness of this issue and to help people feel less isolated.
The Wellbeing Service works in partnership with GPs and hospitals, voluntary organisations and health promotion teams to promote annual health checks for people who have learning disabilities and severe mental illness in Hull.
