The learning disability register is vital for people with a learning disability to receive important, life-saving annual health checks and reasonable adjustments. Yet around 75% of people with a learning disability are not registered. We heard from people who struggled to convince their GP to put them on the register and only achieved success once the media and politicians were involved. They should not have to reach that point, and not everyone will feel empowered to argue their case or have access to such advocacy to assist them. The system has to work better to ensure all people with a learning disability have access to good healthcare.
