Questions about Getting A Life, its aims or how to take part are welcome from young people, families, carers and professionals.
Who to write to
Getting A Life is a project for young people with severe learning disabilities. It is about raising aspirations, making changes to the system and creating a clear path to paid employment. If you are not sure whether the project can help with your question, send it anyway and it will be passed to the right person.
Please say who you are, whether you are writing as a young person, a family member, a carer or a professional, and what you would like to happen next. There is no need to prepare a formal statement.
Taking part
People can take part in the project by sharing experience, reviewing draft materials or joining conversations about how support should change. Taking part is always optional, and it can be done in a way that suits the person, including by email, by a short call or with a trusted adult present.
