Declarations

: The study was approved by Health Research Authority Yorkshire & The Humber - Bradford Leeds Research Ethics Committee REC reference: 16/YH/0320 as an amendment to a larger study IRAS project ID: 207543. All methods were performed in accordance with the relevant guidelines and regulations and ethical principles from the Declaration of Helsinki were followed throughout the process. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic and social distancing at the time of interview we did obtained and recorded informed verbal consent only. We sent via post information sheets to each family (one parent information sheet and one child information sheet). BL spoke to each parent about the information sheet and consent during an initial phone call. Before our phone/video interview BL went through each item of the consent form with the parent and audio recorded the parent’s consent for each item and their overall consent for their interview and their child’s. Before each child interview BL audio-recorded the child’s consent. This audio consent has been transcribed and stored. This method of informed consent was approved by the Bradford Leeds Research Ethics Committee REC reference: 16/YH/0320.
