Join Our Webinar on the Community Navigator Trial: Methods, Learning, and Early Findings

We’re delighted to invite you to an upcoming webinar presenting learning from the Community Navigator Trial, a multi-site randomised controlled trial evaluating an innovative social intervention designed to reduce loneliness and depression among adults with treatment-resistant depression in secondary mental health services.

In this session, we will:

  • Share methodological learning, including recruitment strategies, implementation challenges, and lessons from delivering a complex intervention in real-world mental health settings.

  • Present the quantitative results from the trial, including primary and secondary outcomes, recruitment and retention data, and implications for effectiveness.
  • Discuss qualitative findings from interviews, providing insight into how the recruitment and intervention was experienced by participants.
  • Reflect on what the findings mean for future research and potential implementation within mental health services.

Whether you’re a researcher, clinician, service provider, policymaker or peer-researcher, this webinar will offer valuable insights into conducting mixed-methods trials in complex real-world settings. Join us to explore what we’ve learned.
