The Belong Manifesto
The BELONG Manifesto
A living manifesto for a better life for people with learning disabilities
The BELONG manifesto, launched by Beyond Words and Access All Areas, is a call to action for more inclusive communities everywhere.
When the institutionalisation of people with learning disabilities has ended...
and there is enough money to spend on food and essentials,
and there are opportunities to make some choices in life
and people with learning disabilities feel good about themselves
and their friends
and there is an end to being bullied, assaulted and called names
and everyone can access healthcare, education and employment, on equal terms
We will all BELONG.
How you can get involved
Since it was launched, people have been signing up to the manifesto and pledging simple and practical things they will do to help people belong, using the hashtag #LDBelong.
