RESEARCHERS at the University of Liverpool are looking for volunteers to contribute towards a study into how bereavement impacts on adult lives.
The findings by the School of Population, Community and Behavioural Science will be used to inform bereavement support services so they can be better equipped to meet people’s needs.
Researchers are keen to hear from men and women over the age of 18 who have lost parents before they were 18 years-old.
Professor Lloyd-Williams from the Academic Palliative and Supportive Care Studies Group and principal investigator said: “Traditionally, data regarding this area of study have relied heavily on the experiences of women and we are keen to widen this research to include men and people from different ethnic backgrounds. We are also interested to hear from those whose parents may have taken their own life.”
The study hopes to recruit between 30 to 40 people for the three year studyt.
