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. 👉 Donate today: brnw.ch/21wKMD0

💭 What is a learning disability? Harry, Mo and Dan, three Mencap colleagues with a learning disability, explain what a learning disability is and the support they might need. #LearningDisabilityWeek

💬 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. Visit our website for health resources: brnw.ch/21wKO9c #LearningDisabilityWeek

💙Did you know that annual health checks from GPs are essential for people with a learning disability to live a healthy life and manage existing or diagnose new conditions? 👉Learn more about how to get on the learning disability register brnw.ch/21wNfn5

On average, people with a learning disability die up to 23 years younger than the general population. For this unacceptable inequality to be addressed, the needs of people with a learning disability have to be reflected in plans for the health service.
