Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<br> Feasibility of the study is measured using the following:<br> 1. Recruitment of at least 80% of the study sample i.e 48 participants from the total of 60 we are aiming to recruit.<br> 2. Uptake of the low intensity intervention by at least 60% of participants in the active arm of the trial i.e. 18 of the 30 who are randomised to the low intensity intervention will have received it according to feedback from the therapist assigned to the participant.<br> 3. Completion of follow-up interviews at six months by 75% of study participants. To determine the feasibility of calculating a cost analysis of health economics, we will record completion rates for the cost data, and analyse them to determine what the cost-drivers are likely to be if proceeding to a full clinical trial.<br>
