I have only ever found advocacy services for people with learning disabilities who may additionally have autism.

How do I know if I have a learning disability? I often make stupid mistakes, like lack of attention for detail. Is that a symptom?

You would know. I don’t mean dyslexia etc. I mean people who have significant congenital cognitive difficulty. NICE definition is an iq under 70.
