The involvement of parents in their child's hospital care has been strongly advocated in paediatric healthcare policy and practice.

Here we describe the phases of work undertaken to develop our "Listening To You" communications bundle, including a survey, literature review and consultation with parents and staff, before findings from the project evaluation are presented and discussed.
