We educate
We educate and inform people, so they are empowered and supported to make changes that benefit everyone, not just people with learning disabilities but the whole community.
We facilitate education through partnership working, hosting awareness events, and storytelling. We take part in conferences, contribute to professional training and write articles to promote awareness and understanding.
We want to see businesses and organisations be educated and equipped to welcome people with learning disabilities. We believe it is possible to prepare businesses and show them how to cater for and have support systems in place so that learning disabled people can spontaneously show up and take part in activities and access career development opportunities without prejudice or limitations.
