| No One Knows was supported by The Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund and charied by the Rt Hon the Baroness Joyce Quin, former prisons minister for England and Wales. Mencap was a partner organisation of No One Knows.
Although the programme concluded in 2008, PRT retains an interest in this work, in particular through the implementation phase of the Bradley Report. The focus on offenders with learning disabilities is being further addressed through PRT's programme on reducing child imprisonment, Out of Trouble. | |
| | | Most research in the UK and internationally follows a relatively strict definition of learning disability based on IQ measures of 70 or below, or focuses on dyslexia with relatively limited reference to other learning difficulties. | |
| No One Knows, on the other hand, examines both learning disabilities, as defined in the Valuing People White Paper (Department of Health 2001), and learning difficulties, which include a wider range of impairments such as dyslexia and autistic spectrum disorders.
