We can learn so much from people with learning disabilities if we create innovative, collaborative research opportunities which prioritise their voices. Thank you @BBCSouthNews @NewForestMencap @arc_wessex @NIHRCRNWessex and everyone who took part and came to our launch event.

Six new employees who have Down’s syndrome are now working in the Palace of Westminster as part of a pioneering programme to get people with the condition into work.
Amy works as a catering assistant as part of the initiative and is keen to serve some top dogs in government!

Current @arc_wessex research is with @NewForestMencap, a gap analysis into the lost and missing activities of people with intellectual disabilities. @NewForestMencap aims to fill those gaps.
