Resources

The Living with Disability Research Centre has developed information and training resources based on our research evidence.

These include a range of free online training resources for people working in the disability sector, including Active Support, Frontline Practice Leadership, Supporting Decision Making, Supporting Inclusion and Enabling Risk. Other resources include the Observing Practice Quality (OPQ) tool, a free interface for assessing the quality of support provided to a person with an intellectual disability, a podcast series based on the book Disability Practice: Safeguarding Quality Service Delivery, a website outlining the history of the Kew Cottages, which historically house children with intellectual disabilities, and recordings of our monthly research seminar series dating back to 2020.
