Films, Animations and Vlogs
Audio/Visual guides based on findings from the Children & Families Policy Research Unit projects
We work with a range of film makers and children, young people and families to produce research messages for different audiences.
Our aim is to make our research accessible and relevant to different groups.
We want to ensure that children, young people, parents and carers are involved in all stages of research, from deciding how studies should be carried out through to sharing research findings.
