๐ŸŽ‰ We are celebrating a huge milestone this year - 2026 is the 75th anniversary of Sheffield Mencap and Gateway!

๐ŸŽ‰ The charity was formed on 1951 by a group of parents who wanted a better life for their children with learning disabilities. Learning Disability Week is the perfect time to celebrate that we are still going 75 years later!

๐ŸŽ‰ A lot has changed since 1951, but our vision has remained the same: that all people with a learning disability and their carers in Sheffield are valued, included and respected so they can live fair, full and happy lives.

๐ŸŽ‰ Itโ€™s Learning Disability Week!

๐ŸŽ‰ Every year, Learning Disability Week celebrates the lives, achievements and experiences of the 1.5 million people in the UK with a learning disability.

๐ŸŽ‰ The theme for 2026 is โ€˜Do you see me?โ€™, calling on everyone to notice, include and value people with a learning disability.

๐ŸŽ‰ Together with other learning disability groups across Sheffield, we are bringing people together for a week of connection, creativity, inclusion and fun!

๐ŸŽ‰ Take a look at the timetable to see all the brilliant events and activities planned throughout the week, and get involved in the Learning Disability Week Sheffield
celebrations!

๐Ÿก The children used a booklet to to read clues and search for sea creatures. Once they found the creature they unlocked a magical power like bioluminescence.

๐Ÿ’ช The childrenโ€™s power they actually unlocked was patience and team work!
