For the last 70 years, Mencap has been at the forefront of helping people with a learning disability by challenging laws and prejudice, fighting for equality, and providing vital services.
Our vision is a world where people with a learning disability are valued equally, listened to and included. Our challenge, alongside people with a learning disability and their families, is to make this world a reality.
Right now, people with a learning disability face inequalities in every area of life. We need to tackle the issues head on through tireless campaigning and the delivery of high quality support and services to the people who need us.
You can support any UK registered charity, including the University of Edinburgh.

If your chosen charity is not listed on the online donation form or it is a specific area within the University of Edinburgh, you can still support them. Just make sure to include their name and charity number on the form
