Supporting People with Learning Disabilities
In collaboration with Count Everyone In, the Diocese presents this training course for anyone who wants to learn more about supporting and enabling people with learning disabilities, both in churches and in our communities.
This course will allow participants to better understand learning disabilities, and the kinds of challenges individuals with learning disabilities might face. We will also consider theological and scriptural foundations for thinking about learning disabilities, tools for making our churches spaces of belonging for all, and ways of supporting people with learning disabilities through major life events and experiences.

Everyone is welcome to join this course, whether you are simply interested in the topic, are already volunteering in a church, or want to enrich and expand your existing ministry.
This course will also serve as the first step for those who wish to become authorised lay chaplains supporting people with learning disabilities.
