This episode draws upon the authors’ experiences as social work practitioners and service users, as well as existing research, to focuses on the experiences of people with mild intellectual disability who are socially marginalised.
Many of these people also have co-occurring psychiatric conditions, and often present with complex support needs related to adverse life experiences.
They do not always identify as disability service users, yet nonetheless require support to enjoy a successful life in the community.
