Two young men disclosed emotional, sexual and physical abuse while attending college and living with Shared Lives carers in the UK. This paper provides a narrative account of the period when the two men were exposed to the abuse, the disclosures, the investigation and the legal and safeguarding investigation outcomes. A second paper describes the therapeutic response and outcomes for the men. A review of the literature on abuse and learning disabilities highlights the difficulties in conducting research in this area. Authors find significant barriers exist to disclosing abuse and to being believed. Prosecutions are rare despite evidence that abuse may be widespread towards people with learning disabilities. This paper considers the narrative experience of the two young men, the barriers they faced to being heard and believed and how their personal accounts were discounted and eventually lost to the investigation. Lessons for practice are considered for learning disability mental health and social care professionals, education, police and legal services. Further research suggestions are made.

失落的声音第1部分：讲述两名学习障碍年轻人的叙事案例研究，这些经历揭示了性，情感和身体虐​​待的经历

两名年轻男子在上大学并与英国的“共同生活”看护者生活时透露了情感，性和身体虐待。本文叙述了这两个人遭受虐待，披露，调查以及法律和保障调查结果的时期。第二篇论文描述了男性的治疗反应和结果。对有关虐待和学习障碍的文献的回顾突出了在这一领域进行研究的困难。作者发现公开虐待和被相信存在重大障碍。尽管有证据表明虐待可能会广泛影响学习障碍者，但起诉却很少。本文考虑了两个年轻人的叙事经历，他们面临的障碍是如何被倾听和相信，以及他们的个人账户是如何被打折并最终丢失给调查的。为学习残疾的心理健康和社会护理专业人员，教育，警察和法律服务人员考虑了实践课程。提出了进一步的研究建议。
