C4C Interviews
Overview
Perceptions of the Consent for Contact Research Register: Focus Groups
We would like to hear your opinions on the Consent for Contact Research Register.
Can I take part?
We are looking for service users and/or their carers who identify as Asian men and have had experience of being approached about joining the Consent for Contact research register.
What will happen if I take part?
You will be asked to complete a short questionnaire about yourself and take part in focus groups - a meeting with other service users/ carers, to discuss your thoughts and ideas about the Consent for Contact Research Register.
How long will the focus groups last?
1.5h
Where will I need to go?
Focus groups will either take place remotely, using a video communication app, or at King’s College London, Denmark Hill Campus.
We will thank you for your participation with a small gift of £15 and reasonable travel costs will be reimbursed.
