Gloucestershire Learning Disability Partnership Board (LDPB)
What is the LDPB?
The Learning Disability Partnership Board is where everybody works together to make lives better for people with a Learning Disability in Gloucestershire. The board helps to bring out the voices, ideas and thoughts, of people with learning disabilities.
There are two co-chairs of the partnership board – an independent co-chair Jan Marriott and Wendy Wall from Inclusion Gloucestershire.
Our next meeting will be on the 21 October 2024 at Kingfisher Treasure Seekers Hub, 118 Eastgate Street, Gloucester, GL1 1QT
