Local help for people with a learning disability

[Helen_Mencap]

Hi everyone, my name is Helen and I work at Mencap.

We know that these are unusual times and it may be hard to get access to some of the support or things that you need.

To help, we've gathered information about some of the services that are operating across England, Northern Ireland and Wales that can support you during the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. Follow the link to find support near you:

I am looking for volunteers to help test the site and make sure the information is useful and accessible. Testing will be done online (via zoom/skype or MS Teams) and will take about 30 minutes. If you are interested please email [e-mail] or post below.

We also need your help to get more local organisations on our map. If you know of a service or organisation providing support or information in your area you can tell us about it here:

Thank you so much, please let me know any comments or thoughts

Hello Helen. This is great. I easily managed to find my local info. I wondered if you were going add more organisations to it. The one that springs to mind in my area are the carers centre. Thanks
