Hi Everyone, I've just had a short article published with Academia.edu. You can read the article, Loneliness in the lives of people with learning disabilities: where are we going wrong? and join the discussion here: academia.edu/s/faccaca6d5?s…

Take a look at my open access journal article published in the Journal of Intellectual and Developmental Disability which discusses findings from my PhD research on social care support for adults with learning disabilities: tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.31…

Question for NHS Overseas Healthcare Services Just made an application, GHIC, for a dependent. Noticed a mistake in the name spelling (missing capital). Can I edit ?

🚨My article which presents findings from my ethnographic PhD research on the failings of #GovernmentPolicy in #LearningDisability #SocialCare has won #JIDD International Research Award #learningdisabilities #Academia #ethnography asid.asn.au/about/annual-a… Link to article 👇
