Story
Brandon Trust is a UK charity working across Southern England, supporting approximately 1,600 children and adults with learning disabilities and autism.
Latest figures suggest there are 1.5 million people with learning disabilities living in the UK. Despite significant developments in the last 20 years, people with learning disabilities are still restricted by many aspects of the modern world; less than 7% of them for example have a job.
Brandon Trust are striving to change this - they inspire the people they support to set themselves free so they can reach for their dreams and be all they can be.
