How arrogant to believe that you and your 'in crowd' can sort out the complexity of chronically under resource LD provision and decades of cack handed support planning. And I bet none of you have spoken to a person with a learning disability this year!ArchieBoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01184919590390864161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1189064357283855936.post-77684131184815583252014-07-16T11:00:37.227+01:002014-07-16T11:00:37.227+01:00What they said. plus "Jan Tregelles, the dete...What they said. plus "Jan Tregelles, the determined CEO of Mencap, organised a visit for me and my ACEVO colleague Mark to the home of five people in London" - nice.

Please PLEASE read what's been written as part of the #107days campaign. Mark Lever certainly knows all about it if you don't.....am guessing you don't (or you wouldn't have left us out) which in itself is worrying. We are fed up with being left out and being 'done to'.
