The purpose of this study is to understand the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on physical activity levels and health-related quality of life in adults with a physical disability. We plan to capture changes over time as the UK Government alters their procedures to manage this pandemic. We believe the information gathered will help us to better support individuals with physical disabilities, not only during future events involving periods of isolation but during their everyday lives to engage in health-promoting behaviours. This study has been reviewed and approved by the Science, Technology, Mathematics and Engineering (STEM) Ethical Review Committee at the University of Birmingham.

    Hi @Richard_Scope - May I ask for some clarification here.....is the study about adults with CP, or 'just' those with a physical disability? If the latter, more people may respond.

    Hi @chiarieds
    The study has had very little interaction from people with CP, so far. Birmingham Uni had asked if we could help. :smile:
