Who we are
Learning Links is a charity organisation that became officially functional in the year 1972. It came into existence as a result of some families deciding to pull resources together in order to make sure that their children who were with some disabilities got provided with the appropriate and quality educational services. This was after they came to the realisation that the kind of educational services being provided for their children were not enough to help bring out the best in them and so they took it upon themselves to see to it that their children got provided with the right form of education. This noble idea has now grown into a very big charity organisation which is tasked with making sure that children who find it difficult to learn as a result of any kind of physical or mental disability are provided with appropriate support services.
