HELP with Open University Study "Place, Community & Connection in the Fens"
We are currently assisting Dan Taylor with his study, commissioned by Open University 'Open Societal Challenges', looking at people's experiences in Peterborough, Wisbech and Boston. He is looking to speak with people to understand their feelings about the places they live and the challenges they face. They will produce a report on their findings to inform work to overcome challenges within the communities and infrastructure.

HELP Trauma Occupational Therapy
We have contributed to a Occupational therapy research project with specialist Donna Guest, who has over 20 years experience in working with people with special needs and adults with trauma.

HELP with medical barriers project
One of our founders took part in a research day for a combined project by Anglia Ruskin University, EELGA Strategic Migration Partnership and The Red Cross. Funded by C.P.I.C.S, Researchers in Migration and Development, working for ARU, invited local refugee organisations to help with research on a project to discover the barriers for refugees to take part in medical research. The aim is to try to ensure refugees are better represented in research findings and also benefit from medical professional understanding.
HELP Project O (Key Theatre)
Our service users got involved in contributing to the show's research, giving their experiences at workshops and in-depth interviews, for use in the show. We had a fundraiser before the show and then charity staff and service users enjoyed being part of the audience.
