We are excited to celebrate Learning Disability Week 2025 where the theme is “Do you see me?” on 16-20 June 2025 at BHRUT. Here are the activities we have prepared throughout the week!

🌟 Celebrating #WindrushDay + #BlackExcellence BHRUT NHS 🏥 🌟 Honouring the Windrush Generation & the legacy they left in shaping the NHS. Proud to share Prof Gideon Mlawa & Abiola Jinadu are shortlisted for the #CAHNAwards2025! #Windrush75 #BHRUTProud #NHSVoices #BetterTogether

Happy Learning Disability Week 2025! To kick-start the week, we begin with our reasonable adjust for Monday, which would be about the Learning Disability Hospital Passport where it will give you invaluable information how to support someone in hospital.

It's learning disability week. This year's theme is about being seen, heard and being valued. You have the right to ask for reasonable adjustments to make sure you get the right health care you need. youtu.be/6bdxREk9_2I

It’s Learning Disability Week (Monday 16 to Sunday 22 June) and Maggie Watkinson, a learning disability (LD) nurse who recently joined our team, has shared what inspired her to become a nurse after 14 years as a teacher. Read more on our website: bhrhospitals.nhs.uk/news/why-maggi…

🌟 FFT Awards | June 2025 (May's Data) 🌟 💙 Congratulations to all of the teams who featured this month and thank you to the staff, teams & care groups who go above and beyond with FFTs & patient feedback.

Today we had our “Do you see me?”: LD transition conference at KGH Education Centre. It was a brilliant session delivered by our internal and external speakers who are all passionate on the work that they do in supporting Transition of young people into adult services. Amazing!⭐️

2nd day for LD week 2025 and our reasonable adjustment of the day is offering first or last appointment of the day. This adjustment allows for a less overwhelming experience, improving their ability to engage with the appointment and receive appropriate care.

We have set up a stall at Queen’s Hospital today as part of Learning Disability Week 2025 to promote Hospital passports for people with a learning disability as well as easy read resources that may support them in their journey in our hospitals.

Fabulous stuff! Hope you have lots of great conversations 🫶🏼 #LearningDisabilityWeek BHRUT Learning Disability & Autism Team NHS North East London

Our reasonable adjustment today is around allowing families and carers to support our service-users. Our families and carers know the person best, and can support the staff in providing person centred care in our hospitals.

People with learning disabilities may struggle to understand what you mean when they’re in hospital. Today’s reasonable adjustment is about using simple language and avoiding medical jargon when communicating with our service-users.

Today we had our LD Working Group Potluck Tea Party event. A huge thank you to our LD champions, service-users, families and carers who continue to make improvements at our hospitals. 🙌🎉

Today marks a significant milestone with the publication of the Oliver McGowan Code of Practice that will provide safeguarding of people with a learning disability and autistic individuals from the same preventable failings that Oliver tragically endured. gov.uk/government/new…

In conclusion of LD Week 2025, this reasonable adjustment manages sensory overload, reduces anxiety, and improves focus. A quiet space provides refuge from an overwhelming environment, allowing them to regulate emotions and engage effectively.

Celebrating Our T Level Students 🌟 Roxanne and I had the pleasure of attending the celebration event for the T Level students. It’s been a real joy having them as part of our Admiral Nurse Dementia Team during their first work experience placements. They’ve shown great

Voluntary Services and Early Careers Teams attended a job fair today at the CEME Centre, hosted by local MP Margaret Mullane. It was a good opportunity to share information and answer questions from those interested in joining the NHS.
