Did you know that this week is Learning Disability Week? 🌟
Led by the UK-based charity Mencap, the theme for this year is "Do you see me?", which is all about people with learning disabilities being seen, heard and valued.
The campaign ultimately celebrates all of the achievements in which people with a learning disability bring to society, as well as raising awareness and challenging the barriers and stigma in which they face.
How can you get involved? Glad you asked! 🤩 Here are just a few ways you can help raise awareness:

Spread awareness of Learning Disability Week in any way you can - yes, social media counts! 📱
