Hear Our Roar : Over the past year, Perth and Kinross HSCP has been working closely with the Centre for Inclusive Living Perth and Kinross (CILPK) to create Hear Our Roar, a group for adults with learning disabilities living in Perth and Kinross.
The goal of this group is to ensure their voices are heard. People with learning disabilities have a strong voice, but they often face barriers and are not always taken seriously. Hear our Roar aims to change that. It provides a safe space for members to speak up, connect with leaders and influence decisions that affect their lives.
From the start, it was agreed this group should be led by people with learning disabilities. After three successful meetings at the Y Centre in Perth, the first meeting of 2025 was a big moment—members voted for their new leaders!
Hear our Roar is a safe space for people to share ideas, concerns, and opinions, ensuring that issues affecting people with learning disabilities get the attention they deserve. With our new leaders now in place, we’re excited to see what the future holds!
Hear our Roar will continue meeting at the Y centre in Perth on the following mornings:
Weds 2nd April 2025
Weds 11th June 2025
Weds 27th Aug 2025
Weds 8th Oct 2025
Weds 10th Dec 2025
If you or anyone you support has a Learning Disability please feel free to come along and join us. Alternatively for further information please contact info@cilpk.org.uk
The National Involvement Network (NIN) is a network of people with additional support needs. We have been meeting since 2007 to promote involvement and share ideas about things that matter to us most. We wrote the Charter for Involvement and are now working to promote it across Scotland.

Hear Our Roar Chairperson elections – February 2025
Below are some photos of the meeting we had in February 2025 where we had elections for the Chair and Co-Chairpersons.
It was a fabulous day where the group members were able to elect a Chair and Co-Chair and therefore have a greater voice in the local community. Thank you so much for all who took part from Upper Springlands and PKC Health and Social Care.
