Recent research news

Paula Allen and Dr Rachel Locke, from the University of Winchester, have undertaken a research study into quality of life issues for children and young adults with Cyclical Vomiting Syndrome (CVS). This project involved interviews with young people and their families focussing on the effects of the condition on quality of life.  A detailed analysis of the data is currently taking place and initial findings suggest CVS is still a little known about condition and awareness needs to be raised about this distressing condition for sufferers and their families.  The findings will be used to inform staff at the University of Winchester involved with delivering professional programmes for practitioners working with children and younger people.
