Summary

This three year study explores the feasibility and acceptability of conducting a full randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a promising coaching intervention for improving and sustaining physical activity (PA) and healthy dietary habits in children with physical disabilities (CWPD).

Thirty children (ages 10 - 18) will spend 12 months in the study. All will receive usual care and basic printed information about healthy lifestyles. In addition, 15 will receive a coaching intervention for the first six months. Pre-defined success criteria will assess the feasibility of trial processes.

Acceptability of trial participation and impact of coaching will be explored qualitatively. Health indicators and psychosocial outcomes will be assessed four times, at the start of the trial, immediately post-intervention and at three and six months post-intervention.
