We will write to you regularly with updates about the study, to make sure you know what is coming up, what we’ve learned and how the study has made a difference.
Before each survey, we’ll write to you to tell you everything you need to know about what is involved. You might want to know when the survey is taking place, or how long it will take. We’ll always try to answer any questions you have. After each survey, we’ll write to thank you for taking part.
Between surveys, we will send you results from the study telling you what we have found out. It can take a while to put together all of the information you give us, so it is usually a few years after each survey before we can send you the results.
You can also follow us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram to keep up to date with the study.
