Where Can I Go From Here?

There are an enormous number of disability sites. These are just a few of our favourites:

We do not offer a comprehensive disability links service here (and there are many other sites devoted to that task). You will find more specific links included on our research project pages and personal pages.

• Catch up with all the latest UK issues via the British Council of Disabled People, the Direct Action Network (DAN), the Equality and Human Rights Commission, and the Government Office for Disability Issues
• For an international view on the disabled peoples' movement, visit Disabled Peoples' International and for a European perspective the European Disability Forum.
• Catch up with the latest news about UK disability and impairment issues with BBC Ouch and Disability Now magazine. For a global perspective, take a look at the Disability News Ticker and Disability World.
• Our Disability-Research Discussion List has an archive of international debate about academic and research issues (browse, search for key words, or join the list).
• A really useful academic resource is on-line access to numerous journals, for example:
  • Disability & Society
  • Disability Studies Quarterly.
  • Scandinavian Journal of Disability Research

• Lots of people ask us about disability and impairment statistics. There are a variety of online resources in this area (e.g. the United Nations disability statistics pages). For British statistics you should first check the Office for Disability Issues.
