FROM LIVERPOOL CITY COUNCIL TO ALL PARENTS
Date: 18th January 2024
Dear Parent / Guardian,
LIVERPOOL CITY COUNCIL are looking to find parents to take part in a paid research project
We’re reaching out to help find parents who might like to take part in a paid research project that is happening during February and March. The researchers are looking for parents to do a confidential interview for an hour (telephone or videocall), and anyone who takes part will be given £50. The project is about a weight management service for families (parents and children), so they are looking for people who might be interested in using a weight management service if it offers the sort of things they want.
The interviews are being undertaken by an independent organisation called Define, who have been commissioned to understand what parents want from a service to support a healthy weight in children in Liverpool. Their job is only to listen to parents’ opinions and make recommendations for services based on this and they do not share details of anyone who takes part.
If you are interested in finding out more, please email LCCresearch@define.org.uk
with your preferred contact number or call Define on 0208 346 7171 by 2nd February 2024 and ask to speak to Julie Taylor about the Liverpool Parents project. If you contact them there is no obligation to take part but they will explain more and you can decide if you would like to.
Your support is very much appreciated.
