Looking forward to talking about our photovoice project at #SSCR2021 conference today on how we make sure people with learning disabilities feel 'at home' where they live. #SSCRlearningdisabilities #photovoice Prof. Andrew Power Choice Support

Been a real privilege to be part of this amazing project. SusanBuell and I have written the UK chapter.

SSCR/NIHR Feeling at Home project I am leading on has a Twitter handle Feeling at Home. Participatory research using #Photovoice to explore with people with learning disabilities living with other service users what helps them feel 'at home'.

Great to meet other researchers from around the world interested in accessible/'easy' and #easytoread language at #Klaara2021. Thanks for inviting me to give keynote!

If you're wondering what I've been up to, I've started a brand new research project 'Feeling at Home' with the lovely Deborah Chinn looking at what helps people with #LearningDisabilities living in group homes feel 'at home'. sscr.nihr.ac.uk/projects/p160/ Pls. follow Feeling at Home

So excited that the Feeling at Home research project Feeling at Home website is now live feelingathome.org.uk. It has information about the project and blogs and we will be adding material all the time. Thanks to @sladedesign for a fantastic job!

Good advice to researchers about how to work sensitively and effectively with carers - thanks Helen Walker from Carers UK for speaking to NIHR School for Social Care Research community. Important to consider #digital_exclusion experienced by many carers.

Sad to see the employment trend for adults with a learning disability continuing downwards. Only 5.1% of adults with learning disabilities aged 18-64 were in paid employment last year. Thank goodness DFN Project SEARCH HQ is helping young adults get into and retain paid jobs.

Holding interviews this week with people with #learningdisabilities for 2 jobs working on the Feeling at Home project. What fantastic applicants! Wish we could employ them all. More jobs needed to prevent this shameful waste of talent

Have you ever, like me, wondered why the Mental Health Act 1983 is generally perceived as a coercive 'compulsory power' for detention and treatment without consent, whereas the Mental Capacity Act 2005 is described as 'empowering' and 'safeguarding liberty'?
