Dear Gill
Ethical clearance has been given................over email - no
specification was made for how we obtained subjects except for not
recruiting from current hospital patients. My request to the mailing list
was not directly for subjects fro participants of the list but for
institutions or places I might be able to approach in the search for
subjects.
