Our Projects - Sheffield Voices
Bringing people together, fighting for our rights, and helping everyone live the lives they want to live.
Sheffield Voices is a self-advocacy group with dedicated members and staff who ensure that everyone feels welcome, and that they take part during activities.
Self- advocacy is about standing up for yourself, your rights, and your communities rights. It’s being able to support and speak up for yourself and others in a friendly way.
We work with adults in Sheffield and the surrounding areas whose voices are seldom heard. We are made up primarily of adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, but we are also a welcoming and inclusive group.
We run sessions both face to face and online through zoom around self-advocacy, issues affecting the learning disability community, creative sessions, and social groups.

Events
Fancy something a little different? Come along to a Sheffield Voices event, whether you’re interested in learning new skills or love having debates, meeting new people and sharing your life experiences with others.
Sheffield Voices events are organised by us or other organisations, usually based around people with learning disabilities and Autism. This may interest you, friends, family and your carers.
