About the Mencap Big Learning Disability survey

We ask thousands of people with a learning disability what they think about important issues such as healthcare, discrimination , money and support.

We then work with the government and other organisations to make change happen.

Making the UK the best place for people with a learning disability to live

As an organisation, we want to be led by the things people with a learning disability tell us matter most to them. That’s why we launched Mencap’s Big Learning Disability survey."
