Phase 3: Overview

Phase 3 of Permanently Progressing?  builds on the findings from Phase 1 and 2.

We are currently working on ethical approval.

The study has three strands. We are starting to re-contact and re-visit young people and their families for interviews. Interviews will take place between October 2026 and the end of 2028.

The survey is still under development and we are hoping to contact young people and caregivers in the spring of 2027.

Preparation for and analysis of the administrative data will be an ongoing process to last until the end of 2029.

More information and updates about each strand can be found on the sub-pages of this drop-down menu.
