We have has signed a joint statement with other major UK research funders, committing to better inclusion of older adults in health and care research ✍️

The statement sets out a shared commitment to actively support the inclusion of older adults in research, challenge unjustified exclusion and ensure that research is designed with equity in mind and better reflects the diversity of the UK. With inclusion being a condition of funding, NIHR wants to see more researchers include older people in their funding applications.

It’s out! After our research on T2 diabetes self-management for ppl with a #LearningDisability we realised the EQ-5D-3L wasn’t working for this group. https://t.co/f5bscqFHwt

@johnodwyer has been working on a solution.

[Learning from Lives and Deaths - LeDeR researchers @AliveLeder]

The #LeDeR2022 report which investigates deaths of people with a #LearningDisability is published today.
The report finds people with a learning disability are still dying decades earlier than the general population and 42% of deaths were “avoidable”.

Highlights of day 2 at #HESG23....

Packed room for @johnodwyer's paper on adapting EQ-5D-3L for adults who have a learning disability @AUHE_Leeds

Someone asked if we could use this version for everyone, which seemed to me a good Q.
