Some of our team met in York today. We talked about our plans for the belonging focus groups.

It was great to meet each other in person and the sun came out! 🌞 @poppybudworth.bsky.social @nihr.bsky.social

Looks like this may be a good affordable range of clothes for many people :

Notable features include magnetic zips, hidden access points for stomas, insulin pumps, or other medical equipment, & cropped-cut jumpers that ensure clothes fit better on seated wearers

We really enjoyed our in-person training with Paradigm this time last month.

We all met in London and practiced our focus group co-facilitation.

We are looking forward to starting the research very soon!
