[[[image-0 right]]]Chido Ndadzungira I am a final year full-time PhD student in the Health and Social Care faculty. My research is qualitative. I am interested in finding out the views and experiences of women with learning difficulties on sexual relationships. During my fieldwork I worked as a volunteer with a Dating Agency for people with learning difficulties. I have over 10 years’ experience of working with adults with learning difficulties in different settings.
