NHS Greater Manchester Vaccination Programme – Creative Focus Group

The NHS are asking people to join a focus group to test the new “Keep Protected” winter vaccination campaign for NHS Greater Manchester. This is your chance to share what you think about the campaign, talk about your views and give feedback to help make sure the campaign is clear, helpful, and works well for local communities.

  • Who: We are looking for parents or carers of children aged 0-16 years who live in Greater Manchester to take part. We want to hear from people of different ages, genders, ethnic backgrounds, and faiths.
  • Format: The session will be online using Microsoft Teams. It will last 75 minutes and have 8 people taking part.
  • What you’ll do: Look at campaign materials, share what you think and talk about it with the group. 
  • When: Sessions will happen in the week starting 3rd November, on either the Tuesday or Wednesday, between 6pm and 9pm.
  • What you need: A phone or computer with a video camera and good internet connection. You’ll also need an email address so we can send you the Teams link.
  • Incentive: You will get a £50 One4all e-gift card sent to your email after taking part, as a thank you for your time.

Your thoughts will help NHS Greater Manchester give people clear and useful information and make sure our campaign works for local communities.

If you would like to take part, please register your interest by emailing dave@dinosaur.co.uk with the completed questionnaire below and someone from the team will get back to you.

Please note, getting in touch won’t guarantee you’ll get a place, because we want to make sure the group has a good mix of different people.
