Learning Disability England has a small staff team of 8 people who mostly work part time. We are all home-based from the Northeast to the Southeast. 

There are different lead roles in the team and as a small team we support each other and work with members and partners to achieve as much as we can together. 

Being led by what is important to our members is central to how we work. Working closely with the Representative Body and other team members to support being member led is an important part of all our jobs.
