And a big thank you to our partners at @Ageing_Better for this fascinating project + also to our participants for sharing their experiences - it's always an incredible privilege to be let into people's lives in the way we are @IpsosMORI 💖 #research #qual https://t.co/MoYboGzeuq

New report @policyatkings + @IpsosMORI - shows incredible public caution:

- 38% now wearing masks

Key point from @drill_uk on co-produced research is it means research topics better reflect the important issues in disability rights #SRAconf19

[Andy McKeown @admck24]

Some great examples of projects where peer researchers are getting to what matters by breaking the division between researcher and participant #SRAconf19

[Andy McKeown @admck24]

Great to hear all about the research projects that @drill_uk have funded over the last 4 years and how disabled people have led them #SRAconf19

Only 4 British Sign Language interpreters in the UK are specialists in Grime. Tara Asher signed Stormzy’s Glasto set for deaf festival goers.
She rehearsed each song for a day. This is joyous. She LOVES her job. Have a watch please.
