Evaluating the feasibility of the participant-led video intervention to train support workers from the perspective of disability sector professionals

This study evaluates participant‑led videos (PLVs) as a co‑designed tool to improve disability support quality. After a one‑day training workshop, sector professionals confidently produce PLVs with participants. Findings show PLVs centre participant voice, reduce misrepresentation, support autonomy and offer a feasible, scalable approach warranting further investment and outcome research.

Co-designing with adults with acquired neurological disability in the community: a scoping review and thematic synthesis

This scoping review examines how and when co‑design is used with adults with acquired neurological disability and their lived experience. It finds co‑design remains under‑researched and underutilised, yet is meaningful, supporting participation, connection, belonging and learning. Future work should better define co‑design and invest in facilitation roles.
