Abstract

This book is about two themes. The first is the improvement of the co-ordination of services to people with learning difficulties. The second is a description of how the first theme was pursued, by methods of study and discussion characterised, as far as possible, by the direct, active and personal participation in that study and in that discussion of both the staff providing the services and the families for whom they are provided. The pair of questions to which the book is broadly addressed are thus: what improvements in the co-ordination of services to people with learning difficulties are both desirable and possible; what part, and how important a part, can those now providing or using these services play in pursuing and answering the first question.
