For people in contact with mental health services in the UK- a short survey (mod approved)

Hi all,

My name is Lana Bojanić and I am a research assistant and PhD candidate at the National Confidential Inquiry into Suicide and Safety in Mental Health (NCISH) at the University of Manchester.

As a part of my doctoral research under the supervision of Dr Isabelle Hunt, I am conducting a study on people with suicidal thoughts/behaviours who use the internet in the UK.

This study aims to recruit people in contact with mental health services to share their experiences with suicidality and the internet and provide insight into how the two interact and create potential risks and benefits.

I believe that the experiences of people in contact with mental health services are necessary to obtain an accurate picture of the clinical and internet environment they are in.

Please consider sharing your experiences in this survey if you are eligible using this link https://www.qualtrics.manchester.ac.uk/jfe/form/SV_86yZjYSqTMzS086. Also, it would be of great help if you would share this link with your network.

Participation is entirely voluntary and anonymous and takes approximately 15 minutes.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you so much for your help!

Lana Bojanić

Survey on the impacts of the National Living Wage on workers in the UK

Hi all,

I am a student of the IB Diploma. I am writing an academic research paper for the Extended Essay in Economics, where I am attempting to analyze the impact of the recently imposed National Living Wage on employees in the UK.

The survey set requires people working in the UK. Ideally, it would be nice to get responses from minimum wage workers aged 25 and above, however, any/ all responses will be extremely helpful.

I request workers in the UK to please help me by participating in this survey and answer some very simple questions in the link attached.

Also,I will be extremely grateful if you can help circulate this survey to your known acquaintances in the UK.

Keeping in mind the privacy aspect, please note that this survey is and will remain completely anonymous, nor will the data be reproduced anywhere. This survey, once again is for my course research purposes only and not for any other intention or purpose.

This is the link to my survey:
