We are concerned that the impact on people with a learning disability is not considered when venues refuse to accept cash payments. Hear from our Director, Wayne, about why it is so important that people with a learning disability are not excluded when accessing local venues 👇

Today I made a promise that as long as I’m in the Senedd, I will not stop campaigning for the #StolenLives – those people with learning disabilities and autistic people who are inappropriately detained in secure mental health settings against their human rights.
