What our members say

As someone with a learning disability from a rural community I've been able to travel, meet new friends, and get involved in changing the lives of others who have a learning disability, all by being a member of Enable. My local Self-Advocacy Forum has helped me and been by my side as I’ve made new friends and grown in confidence. I'm now the chairperson of my local branch and would encourage anyone with a learning disability to become an Enable member, it really can change your life! Just look at me - I did it and so can you. SAF Member from Elgin
My wife and I joined Enable in 1969. As new parents we were looking for support to help us cope with a traumatic experience. We found the friendship and encouragement we were looking for, as well as a lifetime of support and connections amongst people who are truly committed to caring for and improving the lives of people who have a learning disability. Scottish Council member from Glasgow.
