Emotional support related to any issues that this study might have brought up for you

If anything related to this study had upset you, or if you would like to talk to someone about any issues it had brought up for you, you can go to either of these services to ask for support:

• SignHealth Psychological Therapy service
• How to self-refer yourself to SignHealth BSL Talking Therapies
