December 2018 – Research, we need your help!
Researchers from the Centre for Appearance Research at UWE Bristol are running an online research survey for UK-based adults (18+) who have a visible difference, for example due to ED. The study is concerned with how much looks affect the way people live, and will help inform psychological support available to people with appearance-affecting conditions. It takes about 20 minutes, and participants can enter a draw for one of ten ₤10 Amazon vouchers. Take the survey here: https://tinyurl.com/looks-and-life
