New research study from the University of Nottingham

Exploring the experiences of accessing services and understanding Neurodevelopmental disorders for ethnic minorities in England (EXPAND): Perceptions of parent/carers, young people, health and educational professionals

The research aims to understand the lived experience of families (parents/carers and young people) who are from an ethnic minority background and whose child has a diagnosed or possible neurodevelopmental disorder. We want to also explore the perceptions and experiences of health (e.g. GPs, mental health professionals, service managers) and education (e.g. teachers, special need co-ordinators) professionals in supporting these families. We hope that our findings will help us be better able to improve the way in which healthcare is delivered in the future.
