Lived Experiences Needed for New Research

The CPIPS Research Conversation Group would like to hear from you!

They are a team of researchers, looking at how range of movement information from Cerebral Palsy Integrated Pathway Scotland (CPIPS) assessments, can be used to improve decision making and care experiences, for children and young people with cerebral palsy.

If you are a young person with cerebral palsy and experience of CPIPS or a family member or carer with experience of CPIPS, then they would like to hear from you.

They are looking for people who would be willing to spend an hour of time talking about experiences with CPIPS and what you would like future research to look at. They would like to hear about:

  • How you think CPIPS data collected could be used to support children and families in treatment decision making?
  • And how you think this information could help change decision making processes for people involved in CPIPS?

Poster with white text on a dark blue background. Text says, are you a child or parent of a child with lower limb loss? We need your help to design and test a new prosthetic knee for children all around the world.

Participants Wanted to Trial Children’s Prosthetic Knee

A group of researchers at Imperial College London are seeking participants to provide feedback on a new prosthetic knee for children globally. 

They have been working hard with children and teenagers all over the world to understand what changes are wanted for a new affordable prosthetic knee. They want to make sure every child has access to a prosthetic limb no matter where they live.

They have made a new knee design with exciting new features in different sizes. Therefore, if you are a child or teenager with lower limb loss above or through the knee joint, they want to hear from you.

For more information and to express your interest in getting involved, please refer to this accessible document, here. 

Please note that if you are accepted as a participant, all your travel expenses, including any necessary hotel stays in London, will be covered. This would include any expenses for parents and children attending.
