Abstract
Dr Mark Christie and Dr Dave Elliott, both Senior Lecturers in Sport, University of Cumbria, delivered this online research seminar for the Cumberland Health Determinants Research Collaboration (HDRC) Network. The seminar focused upon how to conduct case study research, and used Mark's and Dave's study 'From a dark place to a blue space' as an exemplar. The study charted two individuals who had previously attempted suicide and their journey through open water swimming to now becoming health advocates in their respective communities. Mark is now a wellbeing coach, book author and runs his own 'Cold Water Warriors' swimming group; whilst Kathleen is undertaking a PhD in Health Promotion and has been featured in an award-winning short animation shown across the several countries at film festivals (including at the Kendal Mountain Festival) of her open water swimming journey. Both co-presented on the day to explain their role in the study and the impact of swimming on their lives. Part of the Cumberland HDRC Network's Bite-sized REEL Time PLUS (BRT+) webinar series, the aim of which is to empower community groups to contribute to research within Cumberland to enhance service provision across the county. Cumberland Health Determinants Research Collaboration (HDRC) will help us better understand the health issues in our area. The Cumberland HDRC project is funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR).
