Would any one like to help us find out how best to support siblings when their families experience miscarriage or still birth? Please message or email me. Please share with your networks.
Could you help develop our research plans to support families affected by miscarriage or stillbirth? We'd really love to hear from both mothers and fathers about their experiences of thinking about telling their children what has happened, and what is needed

Please share with your networks! Helping parent's with low mood is a public priority; we need to find scalable & effective interventions. Young parents are often overlooked & struggle to access the right support. Please help us see if our new treatment package could help.
16-24 year old #Mum or #Dad? Perhaps you know a young #parent or work with this group? Hear about @OxChildPsych's new study👇 If you or someone you know is interested in taking part, visit: trial-deck.com/trial/aadapt?…

Please watch and comment on our new 1 minute film highlighting the importance of talking to children about any illness @drkathrynmannix @RuthStraussFdn @cbukhelp @UniofOxford @NHS_Oxon @OxfordMedSci @OxPsychiatry @OxfordHealthNHS @CristinaOhq @littlecclub @ParentingCirc1e @NHSuk
As adults we understandably want to protect children from upsetting or distressing news. Yet research shows that even very young children notice when something changes in their lives and they need an explanation for what is happening. Our new 1min film 👇 Comments welcome
