支持圈旨在使有学习障碍的人（和其他人）能够作为社区的一部分过上充实的生活。作为2012年至2014年对社区能力建设经济案例进行的更广泛研究的一部分，我们对英格兰西北部的五个社区进行了混合方法研究。这些圈子的成员支持有中度到深度学习障碍的成年人，并提供了成功的描述，使核心成员能够在成本范围内过上更独立的生活，改善社会关怀结果，而这似乎比传统类型的支持要少。这些团体还报告了在利用社区资源促进社会包容和改善福祉方面取得的成功。这项非常小规模的研究只能提供初步的证据，但似乎证明了更严格的研究是有道理的，即“圆圈”的潜力，以确保为有学习障碍的人提供支持的成本效益，而不是另一种选择，在大多数情况下，这种选择是长期的寄宿护理安置。
Circles of Support aim to enable people with learning disabilities (and others) to live full lives as part of their communities. As part of a wider study of the economic case for community capacity building conducted from 2012 to 2014, we conducted a mixed methods study of five Circles in North West England. Members of these Circles were supporting adults with moderate to profound learning disabilities and provided accounts of success in enabling the core member to live more independent lives with improved social care outcomes within cost envelopes that appeared to be less than more traditional types of support. The Circles also reported success in harnessing community resources to promote social inclusion and improve well-being. This very small-scale study can only offer tentative evidence but does appear to justify more rigorous research into the potential of Circles to secure cost-effective means of providing support to people with learning disabilities than the alternative, which in most cases would have been a long-term residential care placement.
