Learning Disability Week 2026: Do You See Me?

Learning Disability Week 2026 takes place from 15–21 June and is led by Mencap. This year’s theme, “Do You See Me?”, encourages people to recognise, value, and include people with learning disabilities in all aspects of life.

The campaign highlights the importance of ensuring that people with learning disabilities are seen for who they are, listened to, and given equal opportunities to participate in their communities. While progress has been made, many people still face barriers in areas such as employment, education, healthcare, and social inclusion.

Learning Disability Week is an opportunity to celebrate achievements, raise awareness, and challenge stereotypes. It also encourages everyone to take action, whether by sharing stories, supporting local events, or simply learning more about the experiences of people with learning disabilities.

By working together, we can help create a society where everyone feels respected, included, and valued. This Learning Disability Week, let’s ask ourselves: Do we truly see everyone in our communities?
