Learning Disability Week

Learning Disability Week takes place in the third week of June every year. The theme for 2025 is "Do you see me?" which is all about people with a learning disability being seen, heard and valued. Being valued means that people are respected by others, and their views and feelings are listened to.

Whether it's through better access to education, meaningful employment, or representation in media and decision-making spaces, we all have a role to play in building a more inclusive society.
