Volunteers Needed for
Research Study on iACT4CARERS
Are you currently supporting a family member living with dementia? Are you experiencing worries or distress and interested in receiving online support?
You may be eligible for a large trial testing if internet-delivered self-help Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for family carers of people with dementia (iACT4CARERS) is helpful in improving psychological well-being.
iACT4CARERS focuses on helping people to manage difficult or troubling thoughts and feelings, while still trying to do activities that really matter to them.
