Many thanks Nan I also feel comfortable with grouping by age for maximum effectiveness. We have at present very little data collected on outcomes and this is something I will be looking at. I have run groups before which were well received by those that attended but one hour a week over six weeks just seemed to me like not enough to effect lasting change, though some did benefit. I would hope to extend that to 2 hours at least or have longer, less frequent meets, like three hours once a month. I there any evidence on how 'intensive' a group has to be or is the beneficial effect of it being a group sufficient?
