A photograph or York Cathedral, with trees, some cars and a road in front of it. The sky is blue and there a few small white clouds but it is a sunny day.

Some of our team met in York today. We talked about our plans for the belonging focus groups.

It was great to meet each other in person and the sun came out! 🌞 @poppybudworth.bsky.social @nihr.bsky.social

We really enjoyed our in-person training with Paradigm this time last month.

We all met in London and practiced our focus group co-facilitation.

We are looking forward to starting the research very soon!

Sorry @ewenspeed.bsky.social we forgot to get the group pic before you left

Thank you to everyone for all their hard work, and to @paradigmuk.bsky.social for facilitating some excellent research training.

Had a fabulous few days with the team, launching our new research project ‘Swept under the carpet’ let’s talk about sex, periods and having babies. Which is exploring experiences of reproductive (in)justice in the lives of people with learning disabilities.

Welcome, so glad you could join :)

Thanks :) now I need to start tweeting … but maybe you don’t call it that here!
