Why this pathway exists
A provenance-rich, revisable Care Profile can support understanding without claiming to contain the person.
Generic friendliness is not knowledge. A system may retrieve facts and still misunderstand the person if it cannot distinguish expression, observation, assessment, inference, and old information.
Phase One establishes a research position. It does not claim a deployed care system, clinical authority, or a finished product.

Collaborate with usCareful inquiry
Bring another form of knowledge
Bring perspective to the work.
We welcome careful dialogue concerning Disabled people and self-advocates, families and carers, person-centred planners, disability researchers, and practitioners working with lived knowledge.
Please do not send children’s records or sensitive care data in an initial enquiry.
Begin with the research question and the perspective you bring.
