In January we had 7 participants, we are now 1 participant away from reaching the recruitment goal of 45...it's not too late to contact us about the study. Be that last participant!
Check out how the BALM study is doing! #movember @TEWV @TEWVresearch @NWAmbulance @NWAmb_Research @YSTeachingNHS @YorkResearch
We need one more participant for the study. If you identify as a man, work for NHS TEWV, NWAS or York and Scarborough Teaching Hospitals and feel stressed out, anxious or have a low mood then contact the team. Details on the video.
