People with a learning disability often have poorer physical and mental health. An annual health check can improve health by spotting problems earlier.

Healthwatch Newcastle is gathering experiences of annual health checks for adults in Newcastle with a learning disability. They are working with city-based organization supporting people with a learning disability and their carers and are also running two online surveys.
