Learning Disability Week 2025

We’re supporting national Learning Disability Week 2025 (16 to 22 June). The theme this year is "Do you see me?" which is all about people with a learning disability being seen, heard and valued.

Together with Northern Care Alliance we’re highlighting a big health week of activities for people with learning disabilities, their carers and families.
