Thank you for your interest in joining the Young Person's Advisory Group for a NIHR-funded mental health research programme at the University of Essex.
This group will bring together young people aged 14-24 with personal experience of mental ill health, mental distress, loneliness and/or social isolation to help shape research that affects children and young people.
You do not need any research experience, just a willingness to share your ideas and views!
Members will receive a £50 voucher for each meeting attended and travel expenses will be covered for in-person meetings. The meetings may be hybrid, in-person or online.
After you submit this form, a member of the team will arrange a short, informal chat with you to answer any questions and talk through next steps.
If you have any questions regarding your application or the opportunity in the meantime, please contact Renée Robey at rlrobea@essex.ac.uk
