The aims of the research were to provide a picture of work and daily activities of disabled people, compared with non-disabled people, and to examine general attitudes to disability. The study also sought to examine peoples experience of their disability, including discrimination and prejudice, across a range of different areas of life. The research was commissioned to inform the Governments policies to promote equality by helping disabled people overcome the barriers which may exclude them from learning, employment and other aspects of society.
