SEEME2 CAMPAIGN
See the person.
See the potential.
See the contribution.
SeeMe2 is Brighter Futures Foundation’s inclusion and visibility campaign: creating space for people with learning disabilities to be recognised as individuals with voices, strengths, relationships, ambitions and a place in community life.
WHY SEEME2
Visibility shapes opportunity.
People with learning disabilities can still be defined primarily by what they need help with. That narrow view can affect expectations, social inclusion, employment, community participation and how people are spoken to or about.
SeeMe2 challenges that lens. The campaign is designed to help the wider community look beyond labels and engage with the whole person: what matters to them, what they enjoy, what they can contribute and what support enables them to participate.
Campaign idea
Inclusion becomes credible when people can see it in everyday life.
Use real stories, community voices, accessible education and visible participation to move the conversation from sympathy to recognition, expectation and belonging.
CAMPAIGN THEMES
Educate. Challenge. Include.
See me as a person
Identity, interests, relationships, humour, preferences and personality come before a service label.
See what I can do
Support should make contribution and participation more possible, not lower expectations automatically.
See me in my community
Belonging means being present in ordinary community life – cafés, gardens, events, workplaces, sports and social spaces.
CONTENT PROGRAMME

Real voices. Real experiences.

MEASURE THE CAMPAIGN
Awareness should lead to visible action.
As SeeMe2 grows, we will track more than social-media reach. Our evidence framework will include participating organisations, event attendance, actions taken, resources used, partner activity and examples of changes in inclusive practice.
GET INVOLVED
Bring SeeMe2 into your community or organisation.
We want SeeMe2 to become a platform for conversation and practical inclusion. Community groups, employers, public services, schools/colleges and local organisations can help amplify messages, host activity, share inclusive practice or support campaign events.
