One Stop Shop

If you work on a public sector health campaign, the chances are that someone else somewhere is working on the same issue. One Stop Shop offers health professionals a chance to share unpublished research and information on consumer knowledge, attitudes, beliefs and behaviour across a range of public health priorities.

Young people's and their health: Research to inform the development of a specific health micro-site

The research objectives were to explore young people's reactions to:

  • the concept of a micro-side aimed specifically at people in Humberside
  • a sexual health poster encouraging them to 'Text SAM' or access the micro-site directly
  • the relative effectiveness of a range of posters in terms of impact, appeal, relevance, etc.
  • the appeal and relevance of a screenshot from the micro-site.

To provide context, young people's attitudes to sexual health and health in general were briefly explored.

Youth facing websites: Qualitative research

The business objective for this research was to provide evidence to inform a decision on whether the websites for two campaigns ("Know Your Limits" – alcohol campaign and "Condoms: Essential Wear" – sexual health campaign) could feasibly be incorporated into a potential 'Youth Portal' site. The Youth Portal site would potentially contain information on various topics from government departments. The overarching research objective was to understand the strengths and weaknesses of hosting information on a potential portal-type website, compared to the current arrangements.

The drugs supply chain: Qualitative research

  • Sale to the end user

The main aims of the research were to:

  • Understand current awareness and attitudes to the 'supply chain'
  • Understand in particular, attitudes and feelings towards drug users' suppliers
  • Gain reactions to descriptions and statements regarding various elements and issues surrounding the supply chain
