The Scottish Consortium for Learning Disability and The Open University held a conference called "Forgotten Citizens " on 17th June 2008. It was attended by learning disability professionals, researchers & service users. One of the main conference themes was to encourage people living in Scotland who have learning disabilities to tell their stories.

To help with this process the IRISS learning technology team recorded short informal interviews with delegates during the conference. You can watch theses videos on our new IRISS streaming video Vimeo channel (try watching this full screen in glowing High Definition); or on our YouTube or DailyMotion channels. Please note that all of these streams allow you to embed any video on your own web page like the example below.
