Research funding success

Professor Mark Hayter, (Nursing), Dr Jane Wray (Nursing) and Kirsty Fishburn (Psychological Health, Wellbeing and Social Work) have been successful in securing £43,707 funding from Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust to explore the experiences of a group of people who are stepping down, or have recently stepped down from medium/low secure services into the Specialist Community Forensic Team (SCFT) across Hull, East Riding, North and North East Lincs. People’s experiences of secure and community care will be explored with a focus on health inequalities.

Dr Suki Desai has recently started as Post-Doctoral Researcher on this project. Suki has recently completed a PhD looking at the Social Impact of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) Cameras Inside Mental Health Wards at the University of Hull. She can be contacted via email.
