Claire Williams

What am I good at?

I feel I am at my best when working with people.  I am genuinely interested in others from diverse backgrounds and enjoy being a good listener.   In my spare time, I run long distance offroad and love spending time in the peaks. 

How am I helping with the project?

I am a research associate on this project.  I am helping by reviewing the available literature to understand and evaluate the Independent Service Funds (ISFs) for individuals with learning disabilities.

What is important to me?

I am very passionate about supporting people with learning disabilities to have a voice in research and for their service provision to be tailored to what they want. I have worked for many years supporting people with different learning, physical and sensory disabilities.  Working on this project will allow me to contribute to the improvement of service provision and empowerment of individuals with learning disabilities.
