1. Check The Map
This site has been set up to make it easy for everyone to find out what services there are for people with Learning Disabilities/Difficulties (LD) in their local area, or any area, just by clicking the map or typing in a postcode.
Importantly, this gives smaller organisations and individuals the opportunity to promote their valuable services alongside the better known charities and companies. From job opportunities for adults with LD to after school groups, speech therapy to opticians, if it's a Learning Disability friendly service, it'll be advertised here.
