Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland
Come and Join Us!
Behind every parade, performance, and smile is a dedicated team of passionate organisers, volunteers, advocates, and people with lived experience. We’re a proud mix of individuals from all walks of life each bringing something special to the table.
Learning Disability Pride began in 2017 with a simple idea: to create a joyful space where people with learning disabilities could be seen, heard, and celebrated. What started as a local parade quickly grew into a powerful movement bringing thousands together across Northern Ireland.
Through music, colour, and community, we’ve turned streets into spaces of pride and inclusion. Today, Learning Disability Pride stands as a symbol of visibility, empowerment, and the belief that everyone deserves to be celebrated exactly as they are.
Learning Disability Pride is a platform for people with a learning disability to stand proud, be heard and show the world what they can achieve. Our mission is to inspire confidence, break down barriers, and celebrate every step forward because believing is achieving.
‘Proud to be me’
