Stellify Award: This opportunity is part of 'Make a Difference'
Organisation Description: We are people with and without learning disability, on a mission to build a world where everyone belongs. Being a movement of life-sharing Communities radically changes L'Arche's approach to support for learning disabilities.
We help each other live full and empowered lives, enriched with belonging, kindness, creativity, fun and joy. We seek every opportunity to celebrate the gifts and contributions of people with learning disabilities. We look to grow by building mutual relationships across our diversity and differences, and to work together for a more human society.
