Abstract
The Banbury My Life My Choice Self-Advocacy Group, Jessica Carr and three supervisors worked together to research how people with learning disabilities do citizen science. As a research group, we made our own citizen science project exploring an issue of relevance and interest to us. Using creative research methods, we learnt about research skills together and found out what research we would like to do. We then used these skills to make our own citizen science project, and we worked together to create a project of relevance to our community. This article looks at how we worked together to do our research, explores some of the challenges we faced and shows how we solved them. Our aim is to share what we have learnt to provide researchers with examples of how to work with and support people with learning disabilities to do citizen science.
