Learning Disability Week
Turn Awareness Into Action This Learning Disability Week!
Monday 15th - Sunday 21st June 2026
Learning Disability Week is a national awareness week dedicated to celebrating people with learning disabilities and promoting inclusion.
Your organisation can make a meaningful difference by taking part in simple workplace fundraising activities for Acorn Village who believe in putting people first, disability second.
The theme for 2026 is "Do you see me?" which is all about people with a learning disability being seen, heard and valued. Find out more through mencap.
