The Crown's learning disability storyline highlights painful lack of progress

From employment to healthcare, learning disabled people still face discrimination and inequality

There are 1.5 million learning disabled people in the UK, but they are rarely seen or heard from. Little is spoken of this demographic of people, who in many cases completely rely on others in order to live.

Unless you're a family carer or professionally involved, you may not know or have regular contact with any learning disabled people.
