Our Learn and Lead Group is a group of people with intellectual disability. 

This group gives advice to the Centre.  

The Learn and Lead Group does two main things: 

1. Develop advocacy and participation skills
This can be learning skills like:  

• Leadership training  
• Public speaking  
• Presentation skills 

2. Have a say about what happens at the Centre 
The group’s work involves:  

• Having a say on the work the Centre does 
• Supporting people with intellectual disability involved in the Centre 
• Providing ideas or suggestions on research projects 
• Interviewing people for jobs at the Centre

The Learn and Lead Group started meeting in October 2024.
