Research for Everyone: A short film about Cancer and Mental Health

This short film was co-created by people with learning disabilities, researchers at the University of Glasgow, two charities - PAMIS and Down's Syndrome Scotland - and animators at Media Co-Op in Glasgow. This is part of a project called Research for All. Our aim is to develop accessible information to share health research in ways that people with diverse communications needs can enjoy and understand. This film is one of 2 animations from this project created by animator Zoe Buyers, guided by the advisory group of people with learning disabilities. The project is funded by the University of Glasgow.
