Transforming care for people with a learning disability and autistic people
The Department of Health and Social Care has launched the Oliver McGowan code of practice, a significant milestone in improving healthcare for people with a learning disability and autistic people. The code was laid in Parliament on 19 June 2025 and sets clear standards for Care Quality Commission registered providers. More than three million people have already completed the first part and there are now more than 2,700 approved trainers delivering interactive sessions for part two nationwide.
