These folders hold all the completed questionnaires for the over 300 individuals with heart failure who kindly agreed to take part in this study and complete the questionnaires. Thankfully, due to the hard work of the research teams at all of the sites this data is also in electronic form ready for analysis which is next stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although originally, I planned to interview participants for the second phase of the study face to face, COVID changed my plans.

It means we are one step closer to completing this research study and my PhD. Thank you to everyone who helped by participating or in the delivery of this study at Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust<\/a>, Solent NHS Trust<\/a>, or University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust<\/a>.
