In January 2021, the Cwm Taf Morgannwg Regional Partnership Board commissioned Cwm Taf People First and the Our Voice Matters project to conduct a piece of research into the communication preferences of people with a learning disability across Merthyr Tydfil and Rhondda Cynon Taf.  People First Bridgend were also commissioned to do a similar piece of work with people with a learning disability across Bridgend.  As part of the Cwm Taf Research, a person with a learning disability was employed as a project facilitator to help steer the project and engage their peers.  In total 28 people with a learning disability participated in the research and the findings and recommendations can be seen in the below report.  When co-designing the research report, people with a learning felt that what they had learnt about communication couldn’t fully be captured in a written report and requested that a film was made to help other people understand their findings and recommendations.
