#adinclusion
In September Seb White's mum contacted M&S about the lack of models with a learning disability. Only two months later Seb is the first child with a learning disability to model in a UK TV ad campaign! The ad premièred on Wednesday 7th November in the prime time slot of the Corrie ad break.
We'll be joined on Fri for our #adinclusion chat by @carolineplayle @downssideup & @mrsnickyclark - all mums of v. talented kids!
@mencap_charity the ad is great&illustrates why we must all be more inclusive&celebrate what people can do #LearningDisability #adinclusion

What I love about the M&S advert is Seb just an active little boy with the other children #adinclusion- The gauntlet is now down for other companies to follow suit! #adinclusion @mencap_charity
@mencap_charity #adinclusion Perhaps we will know real inclusion is here when a learning disabled person in an ad is not big news..- @mencap_charity #adinclusion ....untill then we all need to promote inclusion agenda. Inclusion is in our mission statement.
