Learning Disability
Dr Chetna Kang and Sophie Sulehria focus on disability and mental health.
This is Johnny, Niall and Joe from Earthworks, a chairty for people with learning disabilities in St Albans. Niall and Joe have a learning disability and Earthworks helps them get the most out of life. But is it easy to live a fulfilled life if you have a Learning disability?
This week Sophie Sulehria hears from the woman from St Albans whose profoundly learning disabled son has finally found the residential care he needs. Plus she’s been to Thrift Farm in Buckinghamshire to find out how they make the lives of learning disabled adults, better.
