Research has shown that parents with a learning disability are significantly more likely to have their children taken into care or placed for adoption than other parents.

Parents with learning disabilities often experience their views and voices not being heard, this can be of critical importance to them and their children during care proceedings.

This Learning Disability Wales event will hear directly from parents about problems and successes they have had in having their voices heard.

Delegates will hear from legal experts about what the law says on parents voices in care proceedings.

We will also hear from advocacy practitioners about their experiences of providing advocacy and lay representation, its importance and the barriers parents face.
