Great to hear that you are interested in testing the Hello Change program!

We are currently testing the effectiveness of the Hello Change program. To do this, we need to divide participants into two groups. Those who will complete the Hello Change program (group 1) and those we who be on the waiting list (group 2).

Participants will be randomly allocated to group 1 or group 2. We will then be able to make comparisons between the two groups to see if the Hello Change program makes a difference.

But not to worry if you are on the waiting list group. The Hello Change program will be made available to you after 6 weeks. And you can of course use our Daybreak app while waiting for access.

What's involved?

  • Completing a brief registration survey
  • Completing a brief end-of-waitlist survey (group 2 only)
  • Completing two brief check-in surveys at week 6 and 12
  • Completing a feedback survey after completion of Hello Change

Are there any risks or benefits?

  • You will be asked questions about your alcohol consumption and phycological wellbeing. In general, it is not anticipated that this would give rise to any negative effects.
  • We cannot guarantee that you will receive any direct benefits from this research. But you will be assisting in the ongoing development of Hello Sunday Morning services that we hope are useful to people seeking to change their relationship with alcohol. This information will be used to improve the Hello Change program.
