The Nuffield Foundation Research Project Webinar

This free online Webinar will discuss the findings of a Nuffield Foundation Research Project focused on the links between cognitive impairment and exploitation.

Dr Alison Gardner and members of the research team will share findings from a two-year research project that explored how cognitive impairments can increase risks for adult exploitation.

The objectives of this research were to investigate and evidence the connections between exploitation and different forms of cognitive impairment in England. In addition, the project helps us understand how we could improve existing policy and practice responses to enable more effective prevention, intervention and support. 

Join this webinar to hear about the project. We will also discuss new resources that are being developed for people who experience or work with this issue.

Date: Thursday 21 November
