Hello, I am a Trainee Educational Psychologist and I am conducting research about the experiences of early childhood illness on young children and their families that resulted in a stay in hospital. I am particularly interested in the experiences of families following discharge from hospital and returning to or starting school.

I hope that this would be a really valuable opportunity for parents to share their experiences as storytelling can be therapeutic. If parents agree - also for children to talk about themselves and their identity through whatever means they like. I have attached the research poster.

If you would like any more information or want to take part - please contact me.

Thank you.
