By: Ali Bushnell Over the last decade, there has been an increased emphasis in the active involvement and consultation of all users of the health service. However, asking and involving children and young people with complex care needs about their treatments can often present challenges. Professor Coad said: “The aim of this lecture will be to share a personal and professional journey of developing skills and techniques in order to understand children and young people’s health from their perspective by drawing from a number of case studies. “These cases come from an extensive programme of research undertaken both nationally and internationally and will include specific issues related to the challenges of undertaking research involving children and their families in what can be perceived as sensitive areas and with potentially vulnerable groups.” The lecture takes place at 4pm on Tuesday 10 May in the Goldstein Lecture Theatre, Alan Berry Building (opposite the Cathedral steps). Admission is free and refreshments will be available afterwards.
