Welcome

Welcome to the University of Brighton study site for the WHO funded project looking at the impact of COVID-19 on sexual and reproductive health services. This blog is for the UK study only which is led by Professor Nigel Sherriff with Dr Alexandra Sawyer from the School of Sport and Health Sciences at the University of Brighton. We have designed this site to give interested participants access to participant information sheets and consent forms about taking part in a research interview. We will also be posting updates about the study as we go along.

To find the relevant information forms for you, simply click on the tab for the service you have accessed that led to your participation in the study (this will be either the British Pregnancy Advisory Service – BPAS; The Saturn Centre; or the Brighton and Hove Sexual Health and Contraception Service – SHAC). These tabs are located in the drop-down menu on the left-hand side of the screen. You can also find more information about the study in the ‘About this study’ tab as well as taking a look at the researcher team and collaborators involved in the project on the ‘About the study team’ page. As well as this all updates and important new information can be found on the ‘Updates’ tab which will be updated when new information is released.

If you have any questions about this work please get in contact with the lead researcher, Alex Sawyer (a.sawyer@brighton.ac.uk / WHOcovid@brighton.ac.uk).
