Speech to Stay Up Late’s (un)Ordinary Conference

Fiifi Tetteh – How relationships are important to me

Stay Up Late’s (un)Ordinary Conference in March 2019 was a learning disabilities conference with a difference. While the audience were largely social care professionals everyone speaking had a learning disability or autism. Conference speaker, Fiifi, talks about how relationships are important. Two years ago his mum died, but he had not visited her grave. His support workers supported him to go to his mum’s grave for the first time – where they tidied up the grave and he had a chance to speak to his mum. After this he spoke to his dad and they have become very close. Fiifi tells his story here.
