Lived Experience Advisory Group
Volunteers are needed to join a Lived Experience Advisory Group of people experiencing sleep problems, low mood/depression or anxiety.
Our research focuses on understanding how behavioural treatments for insomnia improve depression and anxiety in young adults.
This is a chance to get involved in a project that will have real impact on many people suffering from sleep and mental health difficulties.
This may lead to new ways of treating depression and anxiety in the future and provide important knowledge on how sleep and mental health are connected.
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for volunteers:
• Aged 18-30 years
• Who experience trouble sleeping
• With low mood, depression, or anxiety
• No particular qualification or experience is required - just your own experiences and ideas are all you need to help inform our work.
What will you be required to do?
• Advise and input into the research and development of the 5 clinical studies
• Share perspectives and views based on your lived experience of sleep problems, low mood and/or anxiety
• Attend two online meetings throughout each year (2025 to 2030), lasting between 1.5 to 2 hours each
• Read and provide feedback on various project-related documents as and when needed
