What other parents have said about our study…

“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.”

“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!”
