We empower people with communication needs to express themselves. To say / sign / sing “This is me”, this is what I'm about and what I think and feel. Donations help to fund weekly speech & language therapy-based activities like The Include Choir.

    Saying (or singing) “This is me” (with no apology) and being heard when you have a communication disability is not easy. People with learning disabilities or autism can feel isolated, judged, or disempowered. This can manifest as low self-esteem, lack of confidence and limited self-expression, and can have serious health implications. What helps is when people understand communication disability. So, educating communities and services in inclusive communication is essential and creates change.

    Include helps people who communicate differently to find their tribe.A safe space in which to find your own voice.The Include tribe unites, powerfully speaking up, singing out and instigating change across the community.Our projects don’t just suspend reality and create magic moments while people are with us – they have a wide-reaching impact.We educate communities and professionals in Inclusive Communication, creating a more welcoming real-world for people with learning disabilities and autism.
