Young people with learning disabilities (16–25 year olds) and sexuality

Ruth Garbutt and Frances Affleck
CHANGE, Leeds

We will talk about our research project that we are doing at CHANGE, with Leeds University.

It is a project that is trying to find out about what young people with learning disabilities know about sex and relationships. We will talk about the following things:

  • How the research came about
  • How we are doing the research
  • Theatre work with young people
  • Interviews with parents
  • National survey.
