    Thank you so much for the kind messages and the warm welcome to the Scope forum. I'm really looking forward to being part of this.

    At the moment we are in the R&D phase of the film and looking to meet any adults with learning disabilities who have a friend who does not have one. If anyone in this community knows of any friendships like this we would love to meet them, even if they feel too shy to be on camera(!), it would be so helpful to just learn more about the experiences of people who have these kinds of friendships for our research.

    Thank you again! 💖
