lived experience.
Based on the principle of ‘nothing about us without us’ everything we do at See Me North is informed by and developed with people with lived experience of homelessness.
We offer a broad range of activities for involvement including attending workshops, sharing stories and experiences, peer to peer support for engagement in creative activities, development of research tools, participant recruitment, creative session observations, data collection and analysis, contributing to report and paper writing and conference presentations...the list goes on. All of these opportunities and activities mean whatever we do within the project it is coproduced with you. All lived experience members will be paid for their contribution to the project.
For those who are really keen on getting involved in research we can also provide research training through our bespoke public involvement and community engagement training modules at Northumbria University giving you the chance to become a student, develop skills, and possibly come away with a university qualification. There are a limited number of places funded by the project, so if this is something you would be interested in let us know when you join the project so we can discuss it further.
If you are interested in getting involved please contact us.
