Adult Learning Disability and Autism Services

Within our learning disability and autism services, we provide person-centred services for adults with learning disabilities, as well as those on the autism spectrum.

Our specialist teams are experienced in giving support and respite for people diagnosed with learning disabilities, autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and are dedicated to providing bespoke community, respite, and specialist inpatient care, as well as  respect and understanding, to all service users across the entire region.

FACTT (Forensic Assessment, Consultation, Training & Treatment) Service

  • FACTT is part of Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership NHS Trust’s response to supporting autistic individuals and people with a learning disability who are at risk of serious offending, or are already involved in, the criminal justice system. FACTT helps prevent unnecessary admissions to specialist hospitals and supports safe, timely discharges. We work flexibly across community and hospital settings to promote stability and improve outcomes. Our approach is rooted in partnership — working with the individual, their family or carers, and professionals to understand needs, embed reasonable adjustments, build personalised plans and provide therapeutic input that supports quality of life and reduces risk.
