At the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families, we are always looking at how we can support the improvement of mental health services, help and information for young people and parents and carers. This is why much of our research relies on participation – involving young people and parents and carers in a variety of different ways. From taking part in focus groups and interviews, to testing new technology, there are nearly always opportunities to get involved and help us make a positive change the landscape of mental health support. 

When opportunities to take part in research are available, they will be listed on this page. Please make sure you read the information and requirements carefully before applying to take part, and if you have any questions feel free to contact the researcher. 

Sign up to our Anna Freud Learning Network to hear about future opportunities.
