Jessica Gough, User Research Manager for our Find an Apprenticeship exemplar service, recently wrote a post for GDS's Assisted Digital blog. In the post she looks at how we're conducting user research with young people who have learning difficulties or lower literacy or digital skills:

Generally our users are aged between 16 and 24 so it could easily be assumed these users have oodles of digital skills, the latest smartphones and know their way around a computer. For some this is the case, but we knew that there was a group out there this did not apply to.
