Lunch and Learn Webinars
The Estia Centre are hosting a calendar of monthly informal online lunch and learn learning sessions to complement our portfolio of training courses. Our stand alone 30 or 45-minute lunch and learn webinars are designed to focus on topics relating to the health and wellbeing of people with a learning disability, autistic adults, you or your team.
Supporting Healthy Lifestyles for People with a Learning Disability
When: 10th March 2026 (12 PM to 12:45 PM)
Aim
To equip care staff with strategies for promoting healthy, inclusive lifestyles for people with learning a disability.
About this webinar: Approximately 39% of the deaths of people with a learning disability reviewed in the 2023 LeDeR report were classed as avoidable. And adults with a learning disability die on average 19.5 to 20 years younger than the general population. This isn't just a statistic - it's an urgent call to action for every healthcare and social care professional.
Hence, this webinar session will explore the following:
- Health inequalities
- Barriers to healthy living
- Supporting healthy living
- Encouraging physical activity
- Promoting mental and emotional wellbeing
We will email you the Teams link 24 hours before the scheduled webinar start date.
