Would you like to take part in an interview study to talk about your experiences during your primary school years, to help design interventions for children with visual impairment?

ARU are recruiting for young adults (18 to 25 years old) with congenital visual impairment. Participants must be partially sighted or blind (logMAR 0.7 or worse; Snellen 6/30 or worse), speak fluent English and have no severe or profound hearing impairment.

You will be asked some demographic questions, standard questionnaires, and questions about your experiences during your childhood with peers and friendships.  They are looking to recruit participants with a varied range of experiences with peers and social interactions.

If you are interested, please email Dr Elena Sakkalou or email Dr Toro Graven who can send you the full information sheet that will allow you to make an informed decision if you wish to participate.

*The interviews will be held online on Teams (GDPR compliant) or over the phone. The duration of your participation should not exceed 1.5 hours. The study has ethical approval from the School Research Ethics Panel (SREP) at Anglia Ruskin University. Participants will be thanked for their time with a £20 Amazon voucher.
