The BILD Good Support books

BILD believes that people with a learning disability have a right to be supported by a well trained and qualified workforce and have many years experience in supporting the development of workers who can deliver just this kind of support. Our high quality publications are part of this work.

For the new Health and Social Care qualifications BILD has worked with leading independent academic publisher Learning Matters to produce a series of books supporting the Level 2 and 3 Diplomas in Health and Social Care (learning disability pathway) and the Common Induction Standards.

All the books are linked to specific units of the pathway and put the person with a learning disability at the centre of the support they are given. They use real life stories, activities and thinking points to cover all of the learning outcomes and are full of practical examples of how to apply the ideas to the support that people and organisations provide.

The books are now available for advance order, please see individual titles for publishing date.
