ALL PARTY GROUP ON LEARNING DISABILITY
A remote/virtual meeting of the All-Party Group (APG) on Learning Disability has been arranged to take place on Friday 19th June at 15:00 – 16:00 using the Microsoft Teams platform.
The meeting will be focused on how Covid-19 has affected people with a learning disability and their families and carers. The meeting will include presentations from a person with a learning disability, voluntary organisations and carers on the challenges that have emerged during this crisis. A presentation will also be given on an APGLD briefing paper on learning disability and Covid-19. During open discussions we would really value Members insights on the issues raised and further action which could be taken at a political and community level.
All Members are welcome to attend.
An invite will be emailed separately to each APG member (and, on request, to any other MLAs who wish to attend) providing instruction on how to join the remote/virtual meeting.
For further information and to request the appropriate links and joining instructions for the remote/virtual meeting, please contact Stephen Browne on 07787975888 or email Stephen.Browne@Mencap.org.uk.
