Help children with a learning disability develop and thrive like any other.

Children with a learning disability face a life of discrimination, isolation and fear. For their families, a learning disability diagnosis can lead to crisis and bewilderment.

But it doesn't have to be this way, your help can ensure children and their parents receive the vital support they need at, or shortly after, the point of diagnosis.

Mencap's Your Early Support (YES) teams give ongoing emotional support and practical advice on all aspects of learning disability during this crucial time. Our dedicated group of specialists help parents develop a personalised plan to manage the challenge of looking after their child and the rest of their family.

Children with a learning disability deserve to grow up safe, valued, and equal. They have the same rights to opportunities that will help them reach their potential as everyone else. Together, we can ensure they have a bright future and that their family stays strong.
