As part of collective HEAR member campaigning work on the cost of living crisis and the impact of inflation, HEAR was asked by Trust for London to work with members on examples of lived experience to accompany the Trust's London Poverty Profile, adding real stories that lie behind the statistics.

HEAR's most recent work on inclusive volunteering has been our partnership with the Universities of Salford and Greenwich and Kim Donahue on the Digitvol project, looking at barriers to volunteering for disabled people impacted by digital exclusion, and producing a set of practical recommendations for volunteer-involving organisations.
The project was guided by a panel of HEAR members with lived experience around volunteering and disability, and included both desk research and many in-depth interviews with disabled people.
The partnership held two in-person events for volunteer-involving organisations in London and Salford to support implementation of the recommendations.
