Lanarkshire Ace is a collective advocacy group for adults with learning disabilities who live throughout Lanarkshire.

Collective advocacy is where a group of people join together to speak up for their rights and to campaign on issues that affect more than one person.

Some of the things we have campaigned on include employment, education, support and social activities.

We also made a DVD for people with learning disabilities called What happens next..?  The DVD is about the what happens if you have to go to court in Scotland as an accused, victim or witness.
