•5. Have access to a smartphone, tablet or computer that can access the internet
•6. Willing to participate in a group
•7. Fluent in English

•Those with mental health issues of a nature or severity that jeopardise safe engagement in the study tasks.
•We anticipate the study tasks might be naturally emotive for participants. Many family members will be familiar with their own understandable emotions about their situation, and some may be seeking more formal support, or have their own established ways of coping. We do not want to create barriers for participation as negative emotions are common amongst family members and the study aims relate to the emotional needs of this population. Therefore, we would only exclude those who feel their circumstances or mental health needs might make participation too distressing for them. Family members will be asked to verbally confirm at the consent meeting prior to verbal consent being requested.
