Ready or Not: Testimonials from parents and video showing what's involved

To give you a better understanding of what participating in the study will be like, we have some quotes from previous participants of a similar study conducted by the research team.

One parent said: “Taking part in a virtual NewFams session has been a real lockdown highlight. My daughter loved interacting with the researchers via zoom and found the activities really enjoyable and rewarding. The project has been a reassuring element of continuity for all of us, and it's nice to contribute something that might be useful for other children and families of the future.”

Another parent said: “I initially was a bit apprehensive about the session, but my daughter was very engaged and throughly enjoyed the sessions. So much so that as soon as it was finished, she asked if she could do it again! Was great to be able to listen to her answers too. Well done for being able to make it work so well ladies!”

We have created a short video to show you what is involved in the child sessions on Zoom, and to give you some more information about the study.
