Exploring the lived experiences of young adults with Type 1 diabetes during the transition to independent self-management

Researchers at the University of Hertfordshire are looking for young adults aged 18-25 years with type 1 diabetes who are currently living away from their family or parental home to take part in a study exploring the transition from parental support to independent diabetes self-management.

Participation involves one online semi-structured interview via Microsoft Teams lasting approximately 45-60 minutes. During the interview, participants will be asked about their experiences of managing type 1 diabetes, the challenges of becoming more independent, and the support they have received during this transition. Participation is voluntary, and all information will be kept confidential.
