Research participant consent

Work in progress.

Before you conduct any research and collect any data from a person you must ensure they give their informed consent to what is being collected about them, how it is recorded, with whom it will be shared and how long we will retain the data for. 

It is ideal if this is collected ahead of the research session so that adaptions can be made in advance but at the very least you must go through this verbally with the person at the beginning of your research session.  

We have a template here: Informed consent form 2021.docx

And here is a template for a digital version which can be shared with participants via link, and filled in on any device: Digital Informed Consent Form
