Calling for carers of children/youth

Participants needed for a research project on the well-being of children at festivals and events

OBBS colleagues are working on a research project that aims to identify best practise and provide guidance to help organisers plan, integrate and deliver festivals and/or events that meet the needs of children and their carers (e.g. family, friends), improve their experience and thus support their well-being. We anticipate that the guidance and best practise will be included in the Purple Guide. 

To know more about the project, please read the participant information sheet.

Anyone can register their interest to be part of a focus group. The registration form takes approximately 2 minutes to complete.

Once you have registered your interest, you will be contacted to arrange a day/time for the focus group (online/face to face). Because the day/time of the focus group needs to be agreed amongst participants, there is a possibility that your selected day and/or time cannot be accommodated. The focus group will have to take place before the end of the calendar year 2025.

The deadline to complete the registration form is Saturday 31 May 2025.

If you have any questions, please contact Dr Hugues Séraphin at hseraphin@brookes.ac.uk
