The University of Nottingham has undertaken recent research to investigate the impact of Learning Disability Partnership Boards. Partnership Boards were intended to: provide a place where service users and carers are given a voice and also operate as strategic planning bodies. This article summarises key findings of the research which found that the effectiveness of Partnership Boards is mixed, and largely depends upon the commitment of individual members. The research was commissioned by Mencap on behalf of the Learning Disability Taskforce.
