The Stamford Forum is a partnership and works with individuals and organisations wanting to explore 'thorny' issues. Since December 2007, the Forum has been working alongside five local authorities to try to discover the short, medium and long-term trends that are affecting services for people with learning disabilities and how these are being addressed by local authorities and their partners.
