Catch up on December's My Health Matters event
The special My Health Matters event, held on 2 December, was intended to promote and encourage better physical and mental health for people with a learning disability in Barnet. It was an opportunity for providers and family carers to learn about new services in Barnet as well as some COVID specific support.
