Stop the inhumane treatment of those with learning disabilities in Lechaina and other similar institutions.

The Issue

The treatment of people with learning disabilities in an institution in Lechaina in Greece as reported by the BBC is appalling. It is inhuman. Their situation needs to be made public and the Greek Government needs to take action to alleviate their suffering. No country should be allowed to treat their most vulnerable citizens in this way. Greece is a member of the European Union which stands for human rights. These people are being denied the most bsic of human rights. Please help to put pressure of the Greek government to get this changed.
