Spare a few minutes to take part in research that will help us achieve equality for disabled people sooner.
We would like you to take part in our research, either once or occasionally. We are on a mission to achieve equality and fairness for disabled people, through our services, campaigns and other support offers. We need your help to ensure that everything we do to achieve equality for disabled people is rooted in evidence about what disabled people and their families experience in life. You could be helping us to design new services, influencing government policy, shaping our campaigns, or supporting another area of our work. You could take part in online surveys, opinion polls, interviews over the phone or in person, focus groups, emailing us feedback, or a mix of these. Once you sign up, we will give you the option to take part in our research in lots of different ways, based on the interests and preferences that you select yourself. Whatever you choose to do, you'll make a huge difference for disabled people.
This is a flexible way to support our work which you can do at any time from the comfort of your sofa at home or wherever you happen to have internet access. You can take part in our research at any time and from any place, depending on what you choose. You can take part just once or regularly respond to our invitations to take part in research, it's totally up to you.
We are looking for people with lived experience of disability who are comfortable talking about their experiences. Your experience may be as a disabled person yourself or as the parent or carer of a disabled child. You don't need to have any specific skills or experiences. We want as many people as possible to join our panel so that we have lots of different voices to call upon when we're researching things. You must be 18 or over to sign up to the research panel.
