About this Event

Swept Under the Carpet

Let’s talk about sex, relationships & having babies

People with learning disabilities have the right to choose whether they would like to:

  • Have sex or be in a relationship
  • Have a baby or not have a baby

But people with learning disabilities don’t always get the right help and support to make these choices.
And often, these important topics don’t get talked about enough — they’re swept under the carpet.

Swept Under the Carpet is a research project working with Inclusion North, the University of Essex, the University of East Anglia and the University of Lancaster.

We’re running focus groups and or 1:1 interviews to talk about:

  • Sex and relationships
  • Having babies
  • What support people need to make their own choices

We’re looking to speak to people who:

  • See themselves as a person with a learning disability, and
  • Are in a relationship, having sex, or would like to be in the future, and/or
  • Have been pregnant or had a baby

Lunch will be provided
Travel expenses paid

This focus group is for women only.

Venue: Opening Doors 38A Bull Close, Norwich NR3 1SX.
