City of Chelmsford Mencap improves the lives of people affected by learning disability in mid-Essex.
Our purpose is to help people live fuller, healthier and more independent lives by providing opportunities to learn, develop vital life, work and social skills, build confidence, form meaningful relationships, access support, and participate actively in their communities.
Through lifelong learning, advocacy, volunteering, work experience, and community-based programmes, we empower people to exercise greater choice and control, achieve their goals, and reach their potential.
We also support families and carers, helping to build resilient support networks and more inclusive communities.
