A flyer showing the University of Manchester logo, and a photograph of a man and woman holding hands dancing. The text reads as follows: Research opportunity! The Ada study, Access to Dance for Autistic adults. Researchers at The University of Manchester seek autistic volunteers to talk about dance. Are you: 1. Autistic (diagnosed or self-identifying)? 2. Aged 18 or over? 3. Living in the UK? This study is exploring how autistic adults experience dance in different settings: at home (e.g. having a boogie in the kitchen), socially, or in a dance class. We want to interview autistic adults with different types of dance experience. You can take part in one of three ways: by zoom (speaking or using the chat function), in-person: at the University of Manchester, or by telephone. This research has been developed with autistic project advisors. To find out more contact: Claire.Planner@manchester.ac.uk This project has been reviewed and approved by the University of Manchester Research Ethics Committee. Ref.: 2025-23054-42792.
Building on our survey study, we want to interview #autistic adults aged 18+ about dancing at home (kitchen disco anyone?), out socially, or at a dance class 💃🕺 To find out more and take part, email: claire.planner@manchester.ac.uk This study has been designed with autistic project advisors. #dance
