It's Cool to Be Different Podcast
The ICTBD Podcast is recorded and produced in the North of England in a day centre for adults with learning disabilities. On the podcast we aim to give an insight into the lives of adults with learning disabilities by talking to them about whatever they like, and we have plenty of laughs along the way! Come and join us in meeting a variety of characters and learning about what it's like to be around adults with learning disabilities. We talk to people with autism, epilepsy, downs syndrome, OCD, schizophrenia and a variety of other learning and physical disabilities, join us!
