In this episode, we talk to Charlie McMillan, Chief Executive of the Scottish Commission for People with Learning Disabilities (SCLD). Charlie spoke to us about the challenges finding accommodation for people with learning disabilities, in terms of availability and system design, and the value of joined up, holistic approaches.
He also talks about SCLD’s “Include for Good” project, which aims to change societies view of the status, value and contribution of people with learning disabilities by including their voices in research and policy making.
