Where do I start my name is Matthew England in 23 and have recently left college completing a lot of courses throughout the years from public services to my recent level 3 course of digital arts in which I got a distinction in. I have moderate learning difficulties from having to learn and do things much slower then a normal person and my maths and English is very poor. I have only found Mencap recently thanks to my local council who recommended this charity in which I meet with every couple of days in the month and it’s very nice to get out the house.

They are a great help to me and wish I knew of them earlier throughout my hard time at school. I’m also now very thankful for their work aid program which is assisting me in finding a job I know one day I will get one.
