Leanne Mays

I’m a certified Approved Trainer for The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism, officially recognised by NHS England. This training was developed to ensure that health and social care staff have the right knowledge and understanding to deliver safe, compassionate, and person-centred care to autistic people and those with a learning disability.

As an Approved Trainer, I co-deliver sessions alongside experts by experience, ensuring the training is both informative and grounded in real-life perspectives. My role includes delivering both Tier 1 and Tier 2 levels of the training, supporting staff across different roles and settings to build confidence, challenge assumptions, and improve everyday practice.
