National Launch for Quality of Life Standards

On 10th June Care Minister Norman Lamb launched a

national set of Quality of Life standards which have been

written by over 650 young people and adults with learning

disabilities and autism.

The standards cover all areas of a person’s life from where

they live, to where they work and how they are an equal

member of the community. They are intended to raise theaspirations of people with learning disabilities and their

families so they can speak out and take action when they

are not being supported to live as equal citizens.

Cleveland's Police and Crime Commissioner BarryCoppinger wants to use the DVD to train staff so that theyunderstand what it's 'really' like for people who experiencedisability harassment and hate crime.

Gavin Harding, Director of Inclusion North has an interest

in hate crime and said

"This is exactly the kind of work that needs to be

happening. It's so important for the Police and Crime

commissioners across the country to work with selfadvocacy groups. They know so much and have lots of

skills and knowledge to share.

Later in the year Inclusion North wants to get all the

commissioners from our area together in a room with self

advocates so they can all learn from each other."
