BEARS Include
We have been awarded some additional money from NIHR to work on improving the diversity of children with cochlear implants and their families engaging with BEARS. Some people may find it hard to take part in research, especially if they are from a minority community or feel excluded for other reasons. We want our research results to apply to everyone, so we want to make sure that the people who take part are similar to the population as a whole. This development project aims to look at how diverse the children involved in BEARS are, and how we can improve this.
