RADAR initiated this survey because of growing interest and concern among disabled people and their organisations about how genetics may change their lives. It was useful to take formal soundings in the form of a survey from those with an interest in disability to inform any future work that RADAR plan in this area of public policy. The overall message was that the majority of disabled people have mixed feelings about genetics - excited by possible new treatment , fearful of exploitation of those with power and wealth including eugenics.
