  • About Mencap

  •  

    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. We're here to support people with a learning disability, their families and their carers. We fight for a kinder, fairer and more inclusive society for people with a learning disability to live in. At Mencap, everyone works with people with a learning disability either providing support or advice, or alongside one another as colleagues. 

    Belonging at Mencap is for everyone, every day, everywhere. 

    • Everyone is expected to treat people well and make Mencap an inclusive organisation. 

    • Every day we grow and learn. It’s okay to make mistakes but we learn from them and make changes. 

    • Everywhere people will feel respected, valued, and safe to be themselves. 

    We have Belonging network groups that meet online and are open to all colleagues. The groups include people who identify as Black and Asian, LGBTQIA+, disabled or with a long- term health condition, women, parents and carers, and their allies. We want to encourage everyone to apply to work at Mencap and we offer a variety of different contract types and working patterns. We’re not looking for specific experience. It is your personality and values that will make you a great colleague. We will train and develop you to succeed in the role you’re applying for.
