Our mission

Our vision is for the UK to be the best place in the world for people with a learning disability to live happy and healthy lives.

There is still so much to do so that people with a learning disability have the same rights as everyone else and are treated equally in society.

Mencap is going to be working in a different way to help people with a learning disability to make this happen.

At its heart, Our Big Plan has a commitment to listening to and being led by people with a learning disability from all communities. As a result, we will make all our future decisions depending on what is important to people with a learning disability.

Our values

We have a core set of values that were chosen by our colleagues, because they really do represent who we are. We love individuality and the unique perspective that every single person brings to Mencap, but these values show what each and every one of us stands for.
