A major new piece of research aims to uncover what it is like living in Jersey with a disability.
Everyone is being asked to take the new Living in Jersey survey.
Jersey's government says it has been a decade since its first significant piece of work into the experiences of people with disabilities
It has now commissioned Island Global Research for this next major study to identify where barriers sill exist.
The survey covers topics including accessibility, access to services and discrimination.
We are told it is the first stage of a wider programme of engagement that will provide an 'evidence base' to help inform future policy development and service improvements.
There are online, paper and phone versions available to encourage as many people as possible to take part.
Senator Elaine Millar, Minister for Social Security, said:
"We want to understand where progress has been made, where challenges remain, and what more can be done to make Jersey an inclusive and accessible Island for everyone.
"I would encourage all Islanders to take part, particularly people with disabilities and long-term health conditions, whose experiences and insights will help shape future priorities and inform the next stages of our work."
The online survey can be found here.
