Sheffield Health and Social Care NHS Foundation Trust ( SHSC ), in recognition of their commitment to being a human rights-based organisation, are joining others across the world today to mark International Human Rights Day.
SHSC will be hosting three distinguished expert speakers in a conference to talk about their distinct perspectives on human rights and mental health.
We all have Human Rights but people with learning disability and autism, can be unaware of their rights and abused more easily. Sheffield Voices, our learning disability self-advocacy group have made a video to show that people with learning disabilities have a voice and that there are things that need to change because their rights are not being upheld.
Their video, A Fight for Rights, will be featured at the end of the conference.
