Reports on the findings of a research which looked at the support needs of people with physical impairments who also have mental health and their experiences of both types of services. The study was carried out by Jenny Morris in partnership with Mind for the Joseph Rowntree Foundation. The research found that people experienced significant barriers to getting their needs met and that there was little communication between mental health and physical disability services. Individual workers could make a difference, but they were struggling against barriers themselves.
