Since July 2021, Dr Richard Brunner from the Centre for Disability Research has been conducting collaborative research with Glasgow Disability Alliance (GDA), a 5,500- strong disabled people's organisation.

In 2022-23, the collaboration has focused on Future Visions for Social Care, a research-and-practice innovation to improve independent living outcomes for disabled people. The project has four new collaborative publications:

• Navigating social care, independent living and human rights. Four Community Navigator cases from Future Visions for Social Care. 

• A Time to be Bold Scotland-wide learning from the GDA Future Visions projects. 

• How should we think about "unmet need" in social care? A critical exploratory literature review. 

• What works in social care? Preliminary research report.
