What is the study about?

There has not been much research about migraine in people with learning disabilities. This study aims to find out whether migraine is an important topic for people with learning disabilities and to help inform future research priorities.

Who can take part?

Researchers are looking for participants who:

• Are an adult (aged 18 or over) with a learning disability and have (or think you might have) migraine, or
• Have experience of supporting someone with a learning disability who has diagnosed or suspected migraine (as a family member, advocate, carer, paid supporter)

If I take part, what will it involve?

If you agree to take part, you will be asked six questions about your experience of migraine or supporting a person with migraine and your views on future research about migraine in people with learning disabilities. If you decide to take part, you do not have to answer all of the questions.
