In the meetings when I was younger & less experience, & less confident in myself.They was a lot's of meetings in the past I went to. I was just the only person with a LD there & I was not equal at all. Looking back now it was just,Ticking the Box. NOW I got a voice NoTick Box.
Yes Proud to be on keyring board because I got a voice & treated as a equal too YES I am NO Ticketing Box MAN because of my life experience I got. I'm proud to be Voice for people with LD & people's with LD who are LGBTQ too.People with LD got Right to say NO to Ticketing Box.
"I'm not there to tick a box, I'm there to put my opinion and my voice."

Let’s redesign the social care system so that people can live the lives they want. The language we use when talking about people who use support services is important. We are all human, whatever our circumstances. #Right2Home#Winterbourne10

I been researching about kid's with LD from 50s & 60s & the documents I watched about education for kids with LD was hard to watched & the attitude about teaching kid's in the special schools in the 50s & 60s from Britain around the world was bad & I thought it was bad in the 80s
