Bild

Who we are

Bild is a national charity that, for 50 years, has protected and supported the rights of people with learning disabilities. WE want a more fair and equal society where everyone has the same rights and opportunities.

By working in partnership with people with learning disabilities and autistic people, drawing from research and evidence, we identify best practice and what works. People want the right kind of support so they can make choices and decisions about the things that affect their lives.

What we do

Bild offers workforce development; qualifications; training for family carers; organisational development and consultancy; membership for individuals and organisations; communities of practice; resources and events and grant-funded projects to support government initiatives.

Our culture and values

Our values guide us in everything we do. They are the foundation for the relationships we build with our staff, our communities, and our partners.

We champion rights
Championing human rights is at the heart of all of our work. We enable, support and empower people to live the life they choose.

We build positive impact together
We measure our success by the positive impact we have on people’s lives. By sharing skills and knowledge, tackling difficult issues and building effective and trusting relationships.

We find and enable solutions
We work to understand people’s needs and priorities to get the best outcomes for them. We work across systems to bring about lasting change.

We balance evidence, expertise and experience
Our approach is underpinned by a rigorous evidence base and expertise. We use our long-standing experience to translate policy into practice.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

BILD is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace, valuing individuals with lived experience and promoting a culture of collaboration and partnership.
