Learning disability is a complicated subject, and trying to find the right advice for you can sometimes be hard.

We're launching a new online community for parents and family carers of people with a learning disability. Here, people can talk to each other about their experiences, and share support and guidance.

You can register your interest in joining the community by completing our online form.
