Participants attended Focus Groups run by interpreters about their experiences of attending the EPP delivered by bilingual tutors. All responses were translated into English and analysed using framework analysis. In total, 14 participants attended the focus groups (4 Pakistanis; 10 Indians (4 Hindus and 6 Sikhs)). There was a consensus across all 3 groups that delivery by bilingual tutors helped make the EPP content accessible and helped participants to feel at ease. Perceived benefits of the EPP included learning new skills such as problem solving and action planning, increased confidence, communication competence and social interaction. These findings paralleled those found within majority groups. The study highlighted the importance of using bilingual tutors to deliver the EPP not only to enhance the accessibility to the Course but to ensure that Course delivery matches the needs of participants. It is essential that further research examines the utility of the Course when delivered in other languages to enhance the representativeness of the findings. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
