The theme of Learning Disability Week 2026 is ‘Do you see me?’, and Councillor Linda Leach, Cabinet Member for Adults, said: “Learning Disability Week is about making sure people are seen, heard and valued, and that really came to life at Duke Street.

“It was a pleasure to spend time with residents and staff, enjoying a relaxed walk together and sharing coffee and cake. These moments matter, bringing people together, celebrating individuals and showing what inclusive, supportive communities look like in practice.”
