We’re the sexual health charity FPA. We give straightforward information, advice and support on sexual health, sex and relationships to everyone in the UK.
Learning Disability Week
FPA supports Learning Disability Week. We believe people with learning disabilities have the same right to enjoy sex and relationships as everyone else, yet their sexual rights have historically been ignored.
We are working to change this.
Learning Disability Week is an annual week run by Mencap, the UK's leading learning disability charity.
In 2012 the week was all about tackling disability hate crime.
