Learning Disability & Neurodiversity – News & Advice

Council Support

What Next in Calderdale – Preparing for Adulthood is a booklet from Calderdale Council which provides information about the supportive framework available from the Council for young people aged 18+ with a learning disability who are leaving full time education. It helps them to create a positive transition from school to college and employment by developing links around further learning, independent living skills, volunteering, paid work and leisure in their local community.
