Many interesting findings contained within the paper but perhaps the most novel (and relatively unexpected) is that those with anxiety disorders had the widest range of SQoL scores & reported lower satisfaction in most domains. This warrants more research #anxiety

Yesterday, we were lucky enough to have Princess Kabba @KabbaPrincess deliver diversity and inclusion training (in-person!) - “Put your brave pants on.” Even if you’ve had EDI training before, I’d encourage ELFT staff to sign up for this unique and thought-provoking session.

Great to hear from @NadiaAHalim about plans for the development of a remote version of DIALOG+, an intervention that was born in East London and presented in its different versions @ #ELFTResearch over the past 10 years. Excited to see what will be possible with a remote version!
NEW JOB VACANCY: The Remote DIALOG+ study team are looking for an experienced Research Associate to oversee an exciting project which seeks to develop a new remote platform for the delivery of community care. Further details: elft.nhs.uk/Working-For-Us/J…
