Learning Disability Week
Friday 10 June 2022
20th – 26th June is Learning Disability Week. 2022’s theme is “Living Life with a Learning Disability”. Raising awareness for how people with a learning disability are reconnecting with friends and communities. Also, noting the issues many still face following the end of COVID restrictions, such as having poor mental health and anxiety or still having to isolate.
Each Learning Disability Week is all about ensuring the world hears what life is like for people living with a learning disability. Aiming to:
- Educate and raise awareness about learning disabilities
- Smash stigmas and end discrimination
- Fight and campaign for a fair society
Mencap are encouraging anyone with a learning disability to get in touch to let them know:
- How has the pandemic changed your life? What are your hopes for getting back to normal?
- Tell us how you feel about your life.
- Tell us about your community, family and friends that are important to you.
