Thank You, Martin Gallagher – Celebrating 23 Years of Inspirational Leadership

At the end of September, we said a very emotional goodbye to our inspirational Chair, Martin Gallagher, who has stepped down after an incredible twenty-three years of service to Midland Mencap.

During those years, Martin has given unwavering support and guidance, helping to steer Midland Mencap through a period of remarkable growth and change. His leadership, insight, loyalty, and friendship have shaped who we are today.

Martin’s commitment to supporting our leadership team has been truly exceptional. His encouragement has allowed us to explore new ideas and seize opportunities that have helped drive Midland Mencap forward.

Throughout his professional career, Martin has been a powerful advocate for people with a learning disability. Known for being a passionate speaker, deep thinker, and strong strategist, Martin has left a lasting mark on the learning disability community. His legacy is one of dedication, courage, and a lifelong commitment to improving the lives of people with a learning disability and their families.

We thank Martin from the bottom of our hearts for everything he has done. We will miss him deeply and wish him every happiness for the future.

Thank you, Martin — from everyone at Midland Mencap.
