Don't leave us out: Involving disabled children and young people with communication impairments

Jenny Morris

3 September 1998

Don’t leave us out explains how Jenny Morris and her co-researchers set about obtaining the views and experiences of 30 young disabled people, many of whom were described as having severe communication and/or cognitive impairments, regarding the plans and provisions made for them by local authorities and others.

Through the researchers' experience, the report describes the practicalities of this kind of work, including gaining consent, planning visits, using facilitators, equipment and communication aids and being with the young people. It also describes how the project established a reference group of young people advised the researchers as the project progressed.
