Portland College physiotherapy manager Alistair Beverley, left, is helping to train 120,000 students around the world to work with people with intellectual disabilities.
He added: “We want to change values and normalise preventive healthcare for people with intellectual disabilities.
“I also have to thank Portland’s speech and language therapy team who helped ensure that students at all levels can access this tool.”
Healthcare undergraduates do not often come into contact with people with intellectual disabilities while training, so do not develop the specific skills required to overcome barriers to exercise, thus creating health inequalities.
Despite laws to help people with intellectual disabilities accessing mainstream healthcare, these people are still frequently perceived as the niche of a specialist medical professional.
