🤔 Why is #LDweek23 important?

🧍‍♂️There are 1.5 million people in the UK with a learning disability and figures from Mencap show that 870,000 are of working age. That's near a million adults facing stigma and barriers to employment on a daily basis.

#LDweek23 is…

An all round wonderful day up in Stormont. Thank you to the APG on Learning Disability for having us, and well done to all of our speakers at this event. Hearing each of your own stories in your own words has been so powerful!
