RIX Research and Media is a research & development centre at the University of East London that seeks to benefit the lives of people with learning disabilities through the use of multimedia.For almost a decade RIX Research and Media has been working together with people with disabilities to research and develop easy build websites, their uses and benefits. This work has resulted in the RIX Wiki, a simple and uniquely accessible web-based tool that can be used to support Person Centred Planning. During 2014 RIX Research and Media has worked in partnership with a number of Special Schools, Academies, Service Providers and Local Authorities to pilot the use of RIX Wikis, in combination with our Multimedia Advocacy training, as a tool for Education, Health and Care Planning and implementing SEND Reform.This work, which included the roll out of Wiki packages by SEND Pathfinder Champion Nottinghamshire County Council in October 2014, has produced genuinely positive outcomes for individuals with special educational needs, families and professionals. Our pilot partners, along with the parents, teachers and professionals who have been involved, will be sharing the experiences and findings from this ground-breaking work on the day.As a result of these successful trials RIX Media has developed a RIX Wiki Start-Up Package of software, training and support. This package is for Local Authorities who want to include Wikis as part of their SEND Reform implementation and roll-out Wiki use in their regions. RIX Wiki Start-Up packages were made available from January 2015
