Messages of Support for Everybody Matters
"We lack a clear, interesting and visual account of what good practice in supporting people with challenging behaviour actually is and "Everybody Matters" gives us an opportunity to provide one for everyone to use. United Response is proud to financially support its development" Bob Tindall, United Response
"The film Everybody Matters has been produced by people who, more often than not, feel they don’t matter- that is individuals with challenging needs and their families. It is a powerful testimony and MacIntyre is pleased to support both the film and the work of the Challenging Behaviour Foundation." Bill Mumford, MacIntyre
"We must not return to a ‘one size fits all’ approach to social care. Everyone has the right to choice and control over their lives and with the right balance of intelligence and courage, we can make a real difference to people’s quality of life." Steve Scown, Chief Executive, Dimensions
“We are privileged and proud to be working with the inspiring people at CBF to see this important film made. Please connect people you know with this cause. Donate. Forward. We need a crowd to fund the film. Be part of a bright future for people with complex learning disabilities and their families.” Andy Bradley, Founder of Frameworks 4 Change

“Let's show that everyone, with the right support, can live a valued life in the community.” David Towell
“Something needs to be done about the lack of meaningful activity which many people with the most complex needs endure day in day out. The boredom leads to anxiety which in turn leads to challenging behaviour.” Joan Hunt
“My brother has severe learning disabilites and was in residential care. I'm appalled to think that there are people who abuse these vulnerable individuals. It is important to show how people can be supported to have fulfilled lives.” Hannah Cooper
