The 1st-7th of May 2023, is Learning Disability Week in Scotland, with the theme of leadership #LeadtoChange.

Dates-n-Mates are led by a team of Directors who are four fantastic colleagues with lived experience of a learning disability themselves. Andrew, John, John Paul and Sarah have all completed the SCLD 'Future Leaders' course. They discuss how this course has improved their leadership skills in their roles as Dates-n-Mates Directors.

Dates-n-Mates are proud to be led by people with a learning disability who help us shape the charity and offer the best opportunities for our members, making valuable change in the community.
