Connect in the North is led by people with learning difficulties. All our directors and members are people with learning difficulties. We want people with learning difficulties to have the same chances and choices as other people.

We are based in Leeds and do most of our work there but we can work anywhere in the north of England.

We offer training for staff, people with learning difficulties and family carers. Most is free for people in Leeds. We use person centred planning to help people with learning difficulties get the lives they want.

In Leeds we provide an information and signposting service called Through the Maze.
