This webinar is about how people with learning disabilities and their support networks are building a sense of belonging.

The seminar is being led by John Paul and Lisa Donnelly, self advocates and members of Glasgow Disability Alliance, and Alex Kaley (University of Essex) and Andy Power (University of Southampton). The research group will talk about findings from a research project which explored how people with learning disabilities and their support networks are “self-building” a sense of belonging through leading more active and meaningful lives in the community.

The research group were interested in the concept of belonging as a way of exploring the experiences of people with learning disabilities engaged in activities that they co-created. This research was conducted before the pandemic, and so in this seminar the group will also be reflecting on what has changed and what we have learned since then.
