  1. A spectrum of activities that seek to involve children and young people Jane Coad. Senior Research Fellow. Centre for Child and Adolescent Health University of the West of England, Bristol. 0117 331 0892 jane.coad@uwe.ac.uk SUIR Launch. 30th June. 2009 .

  2. Initiated & controlled = Full participation Children & young people collaborated WITH adult led work Children and young people consulted with Audits, Consultation, Advisory Groups, Research • Undertook national review commissioned by Action for Sick Children (Coad & Houston 2007) that showed: • Children and young people’s involvement was accepted in health care settings • And greatest number were collaboration type examples • Variety of types & techniques used

  3. Case Exemplar CONSULTATION National Own field work

  4. Techniques Story Telling with a character Interview (4 in team) Symbols and art materials to draw with/write on

  5. Reflection • Children and young people had good awareness of what they remembered and what they liked/did not like • Consultation took place using creative methods they knew and where they felt ‘safe’ • Easy to use and develop in other settings

  6. Case exemplar COLLABORATION National Own field work

  7. In practice • Children who lost their parents in Sri Lanka in the Tsunami and who live in an orphanage (140) • Workshop in a ‘villa’ with 16 children aged 6 to 15 years to talk to them about the impact on their mental health and well being • Young people volunteers

  8. Techniques Trained young people Interviews Symbols/post its Dream webs Pocket wallet

  9. Reflection • Young people were volunteers in a collaborative community based project • Took place where children they felt ‘safe’ & ‘fun’ • Easy to develop in other settings

  10. Case Exemplar 3 SERVICE USER CONTROL National Own field work

  11. In practice • Young people aged 13 to 18 years from the North of Birmingham were given an opportunity to explore, using photography, what it meant to be young with a particular focus on the impact of their health outcomes. • 3 settings were CAMHS facilities

  12. In Practice? • Co-author: John Needham • Began use of photos in 2005 in work • In 2009 four young people in Birmingham were volunteer leads (2 were CAMHS users). • Helped them seek funding and gave training • All phases: from data collection + analysis + dissemination Workshop 1 Consent/information/cameras handed 4 – 6 weeks later film collection & development Workshop 2 Returned for art based data collection activity Not just what but why taken each photo

  13. Techniques • Photo elicitation techniques • Photos and board work

  14. Reflection • Photographs were useful platform to explore children and young people’s worlds and views are incorporated into local children’s plan • Had undertaken project where researcher led but when YP led and controlled it added much more depth in findings (more IT orientated) • Took time to develop young people as leads but technique could be developed for other studies with this group

  15. Things to think about! Shared context and a variety of techniques to involve children and young people Future Directions? • UWE/CCAH and own programme! • Resources /Skills / Training • Politics and process • Listening and making a change • Thank you and rewards
