The same as you? review of services for people with learning disabilities was published in 2000. It set out a 10-year programme of change that would support children and adults with learning disabilities and Autism Spectrum Disorders (including Asperger’s Syndrome) to lead full lives, giving them choice about where they live and what they do. People with learning disabilities and family carers were involved at all stages of the review and their experience of life with learning disabilities shaped the vision for the future. Day services have played an important role for people with learning disabilities and their family carers. The same as you? (SAY) recognises the importance of these services but also recognises that people were not getting opportunities to express what they wanted to do, many spent years attending a day centre without ever being formally assessed. This is the report of the sub group set up to look at day care services.
