People with learning disabilities die on average more than 25 years younger than the rest of the population.

It’s time we focus on the younger generation with learning disabilities - they have every right to live longer and make a life for themselves in the society!

Absolutely but the problem needs context. An economy that impoverishes workers who do not fit its constantly changing demands will all but kill the physically or mentally disabled by its very nature.

Very proud to be working with @HEE_NEast @RichardBNENC and @necldnetwork to ensure our junior doctors have all the information they need to contribute meaningfully to these vital mortality reviews, benefit from the learning and contribute to ending health inequalities

People with autism have an average lifespan of 54.
Maybe we should get our pensions earlier?

What a Loss to the Service. All because Egos come before Patients.

We also need to mandate GP’s to do the health checks as a moral duty
