Today is “Blue Monday” but at Ealing Mencap, we’re focusing on hope and connection. 💙

People with a learning disability are more likely to experience poor mental health, and some studies suggest the rate of mental health problems in this group is around double that of the general population.

That’s why looking after our wellbeing matters more than ever - for ourselves, our friends, families and community. 🌱

To help keep your mental health in check today, you could try:

A gentle walk in nature or your local park 🚶‍♀️🌳

Calling or meeting a friend for a chat ☕📞

Doing a favourite hobby or activity, even for 10 minutes 🎨🎧

However you’re spending today, remember that feeling “blue” doesn’t have to mean feeling alone. At Ealing Mencap we’re here to support people with learning disabilities in our borough to feel included, valued and connected. 💜

If today feels really tough and you need to talk to someone urgently, you can also contact:

Samaritans – Call 116 123 (free, 24/7) ☎️

Shout – Text SHOUT to 85258 for free, confidential support 📱

New year, and we’re back and raring to go! ✨🎉

In early December, trainees from our Dare to Dream service visited Ealing Council’s Safer Communities Team CCTV hub and control room to learn how they help keep our communities safe. 🛡️📹 We asked questions about safety in our neighbourhoods and were amazed to hear there are 750 CCTV cameras across Ealing.

Huge thank you to Jason, Daniel and the team for being so welcoming (and for the tea and biscuits! ☕🍪)

Dare to Dream is all about getting people with learning disabilities into work, seeing behind the scenes of different industries is so valuable for our trainees! If you could offer experience or an insight to your work place get in touch!

Today is Disability Pay Gap Day 💶
This marks the day when a disabled person would stop being paid for the year compared to their non-disabled colleagues. On average, a person with a disability in work earns £4,000 less each year due to the disability pay gap 💰

The gap is even wider for people with learning disabilities: only 6% have paid work, even though 60% want to work.

Did you know about our Dare to Dream service?
Our team supports trainees with learning disabilities to get into work. We teach essential skills, prepare them for job hunting, and guide them through the process. People with learning disabilities deserve equal pay and recognition for the value they bring to every workplace.

🌟 Trustees’ Week is here! 🌟
This year’s theme is “Celebrating, Inspiring and Supporting.” At Ealing Mencap, our 8 dedicated trustees work tirelessly behind the scenes, ensuring good governance, guiding Ealing Mencap in the right directions and helping our charity thrive.

Joanna Mills, who’s been a trustee with us for 7 years. She says:
“Being a trustee for Ealing Mencap for me is a chance to be part of the campaign to ensure people with learning disabilities get the chance to live their best life and families today aren't left to struggle alone in the way that my parents were.”

We’re grateful for trustees like Joanna and all who help make a difference every day. Thank you for your commitment, expertise, and heart!
