The latest LeDeR report shows that people with learning disabilities and autistic people continue to experience profound health inequalities.
The Chair of our Intellectual Disability Faculty @InderSawhney1 said: “While some progress has been made, it has not gone nearly far or fast enough. People urgently need better access to health checks and follow up action to issues they identify; joined-up services; and reasonable adjustments.”

We need to listen to more autistic people, especially those who are often excluded, such as those with learning disabilities, those who use communication devices, people from ethnic minority backgrounds & members of LGBTQ communities.

He's wearing big, unusual rings on three fingers and a distinctive neckerchief, as well as a silky black shirt. The caption 'What matters to you?' appears in white text on a purple background and a white Autism Action logo is at the bottom left.

Research shows that two thirds of autistic people have considered suicide, and one quarter have planned or attempted to take their own life.
This needs to change.
To help make this happen, we need autistic people (with or without a diagnosis) to take our new 15 minute survey – so we can learn more about suicide prevention for autistic people and work towards meaningful change.
Please take part here: autismcentreofexcellence.org…

We want all our exams to be *fair*, says @IanHallPsych. One example is including making sure language is accessible - it shouldn't be a test of language skills.

The appraisal of the CASC has looked at many factors - see them pictured. Dr Hall polls the audience. Which do they think is the most important?
Validity is the most popular answer - which agrees with the results of our Assessment Strategy Review: rcpsych.ac.uk/training/curri…

Regarding the CASC, @IanHallPsych is showing how the four key skills are broken down.
The range of stations has also been expanded - they can be in any setting, of any age, have any level of developmental ability and feature any psychiatric disorder in the ICD. #RCPsychIC

The aim is for 40% new questions in each paper - and obviously only based on topics from the curriculum.
Dr Hall also plugs TrOn again - see the second photo for more on this great resource.
