Help with Research

[Esmith]

Hello there,

I'm wondering whether anyone might be able to help me or put me in touch with someone who can. I'm developing a film to raise awareness of gynecomastia - what it is, the impact it has on confidence and relationships and the various ways people deal with it. I'm keen to speak to anyone who is considering surgery as well as those who have decided not to go for surgery - to hear two different perspectives. I'm also particularly keen to hear from those who are in relationships to find out how partners can support.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated - this is in strict confidence and is just to be used as part of my research.

You can contact me directly on emily.smith@zkktv.com or phone: +44 207 482 5885

Many thanks for any help you can give.
