Calling all Australian DIY renovators!
Calling all Australian DIY renovators! Have you been exposed to asbestos during a renovation project?
Researchers at the University of the Sunshine Coast are conducting an important study to understand the psychosocial impacts of asbestos exposure on DIY renovators. Your story can help inform better support services and public policy.
We’re looking for adults (18+) who have undertaken DIY renovations on a home built before 2004 and are aware of having been exposed to asbestos.
Participate in a confidential 45–60 minute online interview and receive a $50 gift card as a thank you.
