Scope’s research
panel allows disabled people to use their expertise and lived experience to
help Scope in achieving equality for disabled people.
About
the panel
The insight we
gain from our panellists allows us to create and improve Scope services and
campaigns. Some projects also run in partnership with other organisations,
which means that panellists improve services and products outside of Scope too.
Projects you can take part in range from surveys, to
focus groups, to testing content (for example, advice pages). You can choose
what to take part in, and a lot of our sessions can take place online. Most of
the time, panellists will receive ‘panel points’ to thank them for their time
and effort. You can find out more about this on the panel
website.
If you are
interested in the research panel, you can find out more on the panel website page ‘how the panel works’ or you can email any questions to researchpanel@scope.org.uk.
We’re always
looking for new panellists to come and share their knowledge and experiences
with us. At the moment, we are particularly interested in hearing from:
- Younger
disabled people (ages 18-35)
- Disabled
parents
- People
living in the North West of England
However, lots of
people are welcome to join the panel. You only need to be age 16+ and:
- Be
disabled or have an impairment, condition or access need
- Or
be a parent of a child that is disabled or has an impairment, condition, or
access need
How to
join
If you want to
sign up straight away, you can! Go to the panel
website main page,
and register for an account. Once you have registered for an account, and
completed the registration survey, you are a panellist. We will contact you
with any projects we think might interest you (if you opt in to hear from us),
and you’ll be able to check the research portal for new projects too.
Please feel free
to share our contact information, or the panel website, with anyone you know
who might be interested too.
Thank you,
Anne and Caleb
