Posted 16/06/2025
This Learning Disability Week, we are hearing from Abi* and how Dosh has supported her to use her money to do the things she has always wanted to do.
Dosh is an independent company in the Thera Group.

Independence and control over finances is an accepted part of everyday life for many of us. However, people with a learning disability frequently face barriers when it comes to managing their own money. They may also need support with some aspects of their money, and so their experience of money and what it means to them may be different to others.
