NETS(work) - the Learning Disability Providers' Network
NETS(work) - the North East Third Sector Learning Disability Providers' Network aims to link third sector organisations across the North East of England that provide services and work with people with a learning disability. The network aims to provide an opportunity to raise the profile of learning disabilities, and the provider agenda, to influence and shape policy in the North East, to share best practice and provide an opportunity for joint work, joint bids and shared services. VONNE is hosting the network.
