with colleagues from the Staying Alive and Well Group
The LeDeR Programme (Learning from Lives and Deaths) was established by NHS England in 2017. It aims to prevent early deaths of people with a learning disability and autistic people, improve their care, and reduce health inequalities.

LeDeR summarises the lives and deaths of people with a learning disability and autistic people who died in England, in annual reports. In 2021, the report was produced by a team of researchers at Kings College London. They partnered with Kingston University, where the Staying Alive and Well Group was formed.

This is a group of people with a learning disability, whose job it is to make the LeDeR report easier to understand.

For this webinar, we have invited the Staying Alive and Well Group to tell us about their work. They will:

• Share their brand-new video with you, which explains what LeDeR is, and how LeDeR works – using story-telling!

• Show you their accessible version of one of part of the 2021 LeDeR report: “How good was the care of people with a learning disability who died?”

• Do their best to respond to your questions and comments!

This webinar will be of interest to anyone working in health and social care, service managers, policy makers, families and carers.
