  1. DRILL’s First Round

  2. Disabled people creating knowledge • Challenging what is considered ‘natural’ • ‘It is not individual limitations, of whatever kind, which are the cause of the problem but society's failure to provide appropriate services and adequately ensure the needs of disabled people are fully taken into account in its social organisation.’-Mike Oliver, 1990

  3. Disabled people creating knowledge • Disability-led research led to: • The 1995 Disability Discrimination Act • The Community Care (Direct Payments) Act 1996 • Disability Research into Independent Living and Learning • Disability-led research for the 21st century • 5 year, £5 million research programme funded by The Big Lottery • Finding evidence, generating solutions
