Over the past year we've been working on a project called LIVE-IT, aimed at improving digital inclusion for people with cognitive impairments. We've recently set up an online community for the project (the Makerspace) and we're looking for participants to give us some feedback through a short survey (it will only take 5-10 minutes)
To take part:
1. Sign up to the LIVE-IT Makerspace community here (live-it.circle.so/)
2. Set up a profile, have a look around the community, make a comment or start a discussion, or tell us about your favourite apps/tools for ADHD here
3. Fill out a short survey (forms.gle/FVboj3myeAibuYvdA)
Thank you for taking part!
