The University of Birmingham is looking for parents and carers of young people with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD) to complete a survey shating your views on what is needed to ensure healthy lives and meaningful inclusion. If you would like to contribute to the study, follow the link below 👇🏼If you are a carer of a person with a profound learning and multiple disability (PMLD) aged 14 or over and you are over 18 please consider taking part in this online survey that we are supporting alongside other carer-led organisations across the UK.

Many of you will remember the COVID-19 pandemic UK-wide survey about the impact of COVID on people with a learning disability and their families and the restrictions that were put in place. The findings from several phases of this research were and continue to be really useful.

The team are now building on this and are doing a survey specifically looking at the life and well-being of people with PMLD, and how we can best support them in the future. We are supporting this research because we believe it is an important way for carers to help shape research, policy and practice.

The survey has a website where you can find out more about the survey and the team: www.pmld-survey.ac.uk

Please scan the code, or get in touch with the team at pmld-survey@contacts.bham.ac.uk if you want to discuss further, to make sure we collect your thoughts on what is needed to ensure healthy lives of meaning and inclusion. …

“The teachers are an asset to my son and others, thank you.”

“I am extremely happy with the progress my daughter is making – she has come on in leaps and bounds. I feel Birch Wood Vale is tailor made for her needs.”

“I am so happy with how my son has progressed in the school setting over a short period of time. A big ‘thank you’ for everyone’s help and especially for their exceptional support. I know that he will blossom throughout the school setting. Thanks again!”

“The primary school said under no circumstances could he go back after Christmas. Sending him to Birch Wood is the best thing I ever did, I couldn’t be more pleased. He is calmer, telling me about things he enjoys at school. Everybody has noticed such a big change in him, all of my family appreciate everything you are doing, it has changed our lives.”

“My son is really happy, he’s started playing again and back to the old child. Everything is really positive and he is much happier when he comes home. The unit has been really positive for him”

“I am happy with the new assessment and tracking system. My son seems very happy at school and appears to be making good progress. The teachers seemed very knowledgeable about my son’s abilities and when to push him. I would like to comment on his next IEP before it is finalised.”

“The provision has been outstanding in every way and the staff are brilliant with strategies to ensure progress is made in all areas of my son’s school life. We couldn’t ask for anything more!”

“I was very impressed with how positive ad enthusiastic all staff were tonight (as always). Especially impressed with all the efficient, colour coded information on my sons progress and it’s equivalent grade in GCSE.”
