Family Hub

Mencap’s brand new online community for parents and family carers of people with a learning disability. We say it’s Mencap’s community, but really, it’s yours.
It’s a community that connects parents who have a child/children with a learning disability, to share your experiences, triumphs and challenges, and to offer support and guidance to others whose family situation is similar to your own.
For more information please visit the Mencap Family Hub website.
