About the ISPA project
The ISPA project is an ambitious 5-year participatory mixed method study that will explore and understand how the stigma attached to where people live can intersect with experiences of disability and ageing.
This will provide nuanced insights into the structures and systems that drive exclusion and allow us to tackle the inequalities experienced by older disabled adults. Watch the video below if you wish to see an overview.
We aim to develop interventions related to home and environmental modifications which encourage interventions for inclusive approaches that support people to age well within homes and communities across England, Scotland, and Wales.
The project is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council and runs from September 2022 to September 2027.
