Hear my Voice
Every day, more than 1.4 million people with a learning disability and their families face issues like poor healthcare, hate crime and social isolation. But these issues are rarely, if ever, debated at election time and most politicians don't understand how these things impact on people's lives.
This can change. People with a learning disability - and the millions of family members, carers and support workers connected to them - can make their voices heard on the issues that matter to them at the 2015 General Election. Together we're louder.
