Forest school INterventions for Children’s Health: a feasibility cluster randomised controlled trial to compare Forest School versus usual indoor classroom-based curriculum activity with KS2 children: the FINCH protocol
We will develop accessible presentations, online workshops with interactive elements, and newsletters. Producing a set of easily read infographics and creative outputs (video/social media) alongside our children's Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) groups will be a key output. We anticipate that two publications in open-access peer-reviewed journals will share the quantitative and qualitative findings of the study.
