Mental Health Act or Mental Capacity Act? What’s the right approach for autistic people and people with a learning disability who are in Assessment and Treatment Units?

Join Irwin Mitchell for a panel discussion around the issue of whether the Mental Health Act is being appropriately used for people with a learning disability and/or autism who are in mental health in-patient units.

It is taking place on Tuesday 25 May (tomorrow) from 5.30 to 7pm. You can book your place here - events.irwinmitchell.com/me...
