and services for adults with learning disabilities in Islington. Staff are

Trust (previously known as Camden and Islington Mental Health and Social Care
Trust).

The term "learning disability" used to be known as "mental handicap". It does not refer to people with a specific learning difficulty such as dyslexia. For more information see our leaflets, which are available for downloading at the bottom of this page.
