Have you been keeping up with the Euros?

First impressions can be misleading, you might think people who are deafblind can't enjoy the football with their friends, but we caught up with Richard, who always has a great time during the game!

💬 Do you understand me?

People with a learning disability continue to face health inequalities and barriers to accessing care. But it is important to get help with health when it's needed.

We're continuing to celebrate #LearningDisabilityWeek with Ella signing "Do you hear me?"

It's #LearningDisabilityWeek! 💜

We want people with a learning disability to be seen.

Research shows that people with a learning disability have had enough of being ignored, mistreated, patronised - and, sometimes, even locked away.
