Hope everyone had a great Christmas - just a note to say Happy New Year to you and your loved ones.

We have lots of things planned for 2018 - in January the site will be moving to https and a new DCUKiD login will be added to make forum, education and site access easier. There may be a day or so of outage, but systems should be far smoother. We updated our servers earlier this month and the speed of the forum has improved, too. :)

In terms of the forum, the highlight for 2017 was most certainly Royal Holloyway's study by Roberta Bernardi and Philip Wu, showing that the forum was empowering. It's amazing to see how this can be provided from a 'digital' means, and how it is quantified. We're doing a second phase study, which you can get involved in here.

We have some really, really exciting projects nearing completion. We're working hard in education, and have several new programs schedule for release in 2018. We are doing some really interesting stuff in technology - including augmented and virtual realities. It is truly immersive in a way that is truly captivating. We'd love for people to help test these - so if you're close to University of Warwick, please let us know! If you'd like to get involved in testing any of our projects, please complete the form here: https://goo.gl/forms/VAbt5Y2i9FUrNcNj2. If for any reason you can't complete the form, please PM.

Have a great new year and here's to 2018! :)

Happy New Year all my new found virtual friends! This time last year I didn’t even know this Forum existed. Thank God it does! I have found so much friendly advice here which has enabled me to get healthy again. I’ve visited every day since diagnosis and will recommend it to anyone who receives a diagnosis. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart :)
