Get involved with Scope's Research Panel

James_Scope

Hi guys! I'm Scope's Panel Officer. I help run our Scope Research Panel, which is a group of disabled people and parents and carers of disabled children. We organise research projects, where panellists use their lived experience to improve our website content, services, advice and campaigns. This might involve filling out an online survey, taking part in a one to one session, or attending a focus group. You can take part in some of our projects remotely. 

As a thank you for your time and effort, we offer eGift cards for taking part in some research projects. These can be redeemed at a variety of online and high street shops. 

If you're interested in getting involved, head to https://www.scope.org.uk/research-panel/ to sign up. Feel free to email us via [email protected] if you've got any questions or thoughts!

Hi James,  Your colleague Sam told me about  Scope's research project work when I was talking to her about signing-up to be an online champion for Scope.  I have been a Scope Online Champion for approximately 6 weeks or so.  When I filled in the initial volunteer forms out to be a Champion I also registered my interest in taking part in research projects.  Do I need to take any further action or wait to be contacted by you or a member of your team as and when?

hi @James_Scope
If you need links to any international research regarding a topic, just ask and I may be able to find some research paper articles you may find of some interest.

Hi @dolfrog! Thanks very much, I'll think of you if anything related to international research comes up. I appreciate it!

Hi @EricaMcD - there is an automated response that should reach you at some point (although 6 weeks+ is a bit long, not sure why you haven't received anything yet). But the fastest way to get on board would be to sign up directly. If you head to https://scope.org.uk/research-panel/, you'll be able to sign up now. Let me know if you need any additional info or support!

Hi @James_Scope

I’ve got an existing member of the research panel and also a Community champion I was in contact with Sam I just  you emailed to ask if there was anything I could get involved in as I have not been involved in anything for awhile and I really enjoy it. So I thought I would just let you know on here that I’m interested. 😀

Thanks
