SUFFOLK’S CHARTER The charter is about services for people with learning disabilities, their carers and families. The services are provided by Suffolk County Council, the health service and others. Some services such as seeing a doctor, are available for everyone and some services are only available for people who need a lot of support.
IMPROVING MY HEALTH We will help people with learning disabilities to improve their health. It will be easier to see GPs, dentists and other health staff, including hospital staff. We will support family carers to stay healthy and help them to access services. We will set targets and monitor progress.
MAKING A HOME We will help people with learning disabilities to own their own home or live in good rented accommodation. Residential care will only be for those who really need it.
ENJOYING MY JOB In Suffolk we will make sure that more people with learning disabilities have real work, including those with complex needs. We will help people who want to work to learn new skills, or to get training, while working as a volunteer.
GETTING A JOB “A Good Job for All”
MAKING CHOICES In Suffolk people with learning disabilities and their family carers will decide for themselves about their services. We will make sure that people have help and information. We will make sure, where possible, that people can have what they want and that this is affordable.
DOING WHAT I WANT DURING THE DAY In Suffolk we will make sure that more people with learning disabilities are able to do the things they want to during the day and at evenings and weekends. This includes people with complex needs. We will help people to know what is available.
BECOMING AN ADULT In Suffolk we will support young people with disabilities and their families as they become adults. We will make sure that they know what’s available and that they make their own decisions. We will ensure that changes are planned properly.
BEING HEARD In Suffolk we will provide information, advice and advocacy so that people can choose about services, and what they want to do. We will support those self advocates and family carers on the Learning Disability Partnership Board.

We have put a lot of new money into the Pooled Fund in the last few years More people will continue to need more services BUT: In the future we there will not be the same amount of new money to add in We therefore need to do things differently: Reduce expensive residential care Better access to universal services Help people to be and remain as independent as possible Short term interventions – re-ablement Build on the capacity of local communities - social capital Work effectively together Get the best value out of all our contracts Look for new and better ways of doing things Care Health and IndependenceDelivery Partnership Key messages from the “Big Messages”
