The Level Up, Cheshire and Merseyside, Young People and Families, Lead Provider Collaborative, alongside CANDDID (Centre for Autism, Neurodevelopmental Disorders and Intellectual Disabilities) have developed five educational films funded by NHS England, co-produced with experts by experience. The films contain a clear message from young people with learning disabilities and/or autism relating to a self-defined crisis. The messages reference what a crisis means to our individual young people and what we need to know to support them.
