About Our Site

Hundreds of thousands of people in the UK live with learning disabilities. They often face extra challenges in life - connecting with society, finding work, and accessing the services designed to help them live independently.

Since government thinking shifted towards supporting people with learning disabilities to live more fulfilling lives, a lot has changed. We created this site to help educate people about the challenges involved and how things are improving. We believe people with learning disabilities should get as much support as possible to live independently.
