Do You See Me? Join the learning disability movement
zhlédnutí 1,3KPřed měsícem
Do you believe in a world where everyone is seen and heard? People with a learning disability have had enough of being ignored, mistreated, looked down on, treated like children - and sometimes, even locked away. We've had enough of services that overlook us instead of supporting us. We've had enough of schools and workplaces that don’t include us, letting our potential be wasted. And had enoug...

Nice work
The video is pointing people to a discretionary trust. Why not point to a "disabled persons" trust", which has tax advantages?

I know the laws are different in a lot of these European countries but in the United States, we have the stand your ground laws and the castle doctrine laws. In United States, people can get a license to conceal and carry. If you have that CC license, it’s time to start locking and loading. I carry a taser when I have to take public transportation and walk through dangerous neighborhoods. I have a right to protect myself.
I have LD, and I am very well aware of hate crimes against people with disabilities.
People have to understand that disabilities aren't one size fits all. There are some that happen to be advanced and higher functional. I also have bipolar depression, ADHD, and PTSD with only borderline to mild intellectual/developmental disabilities. Hate crimes are horrific, and I can imagine that people doing it because of someone's disability. It is a disgusting way to treat people with disabilities, and it definitely wrong no matter what degree or severity range the disability is. Even people with borderline and mild disabilities can face discrimination as well as moderate to profound ranges. Hate crimes in many forms is wrong.

Another stereotype people with learning disabilty have normal intelligence.
'Speaking to people with a learning disability.' Is it that the speaker has a learning disability or is it the audience? Or, or could it be both?

Indoctrination of children, that's what it is!
I know someone in that mencap video call David house 🏠
We are all human beings and should be treated like one and with respect
I have a learning disability partially sighted and autism
I just watched this and absolutely love it. I’m a mom of 2 littles with autism and who are slightly delayed. How Rosie acted in the show reminds me so much of my daughter she’s 6 and non verbal so it was nice to see a older child who is portrayed as being delayed and the parents accommodate to her needs. Both my kids also run off so that also made me laugh
Don't forget the minimum wage
Is this his cousin Laurent the one with Down syndrome and autism?
I'm sure he does
is he still alive?
Well done, Kelly for speaking out and telling it like it is.
