Stories, objects and pictures as methods of engagement in research in assistive living technologies. Gemma Hughes, Joe Wherton and Beth McDougall discuss methods to engage people in research; visual and tactile methods, stories and story-boards, and co-production. The team counsel that some engagement activities don’t always go according to plan, and advise on being prepared to allow engagement to unfold in sometimes unanticipated ways.
