We create change. We work to change society’s perceptions of what a learning disability is and what a person with a learning disability can do.
Whatever a person’s level of disability, we support them to be as independent
as possible, and have every opportunity to live a full and meaningful life.
We make sure people feel valued, respected and empowered.
LDN supports people to make decisions about their life at every opportunity.
This means people we support are listened to and their choices are respected
– whether the choice is about what someone wants to eat, how they would like
to spend their afternoon, or how they would want to be looked after if they fell ill.

Cecilia, one of our team managers won the Judges’ Special Recognition award at the Markel 3rd Sector Care Awards 2019. "Cecilia is clearly highly skilled at person centred care. In an alien situation, she excelled, organising support for an individual with learning disabilities so that they understood and could make choices about their end of life experience. Cecilia went the extra mile, having the difficult conversations, building new relationships with clinical teams and helping other people in the service to come to terms with their friend’s death. The judges were blown away by her extraordinary story."
We are delighted that our CEO Gabby Machell won the ‘Making a Difference Award’ at the Markel 3rd Sector Care Awards on Friday 6th December 2019.

The winner is a role model for their employees and has inspired loyalty and trust within their organisation, expecting the values to be embedded by all the ‘family’ of staff."

"We are delighted – and wanted to thank our teams for the value they place in providing care"
