Using creative and arts\u2010based methods, co\u2010researchers remotely co\u2010analysed the survey results amid COVID\u201019 lockdown challenges. Here, we explore our unexpected \u201ctransition\u201d journey from the physical \u201cHub\u201d to the digital space.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We organised 20 sessions at The Hub and used audio\/video\/photo recordings to capture key moments. With the lockdown, we ensured that every co\u2010researcher had access to and support for digital technologies. Throughout 2020, we organised 28 Zoom meetings involving all co\u2010researchers. In June, Lilly (a multi\u2010media journalist and she lives by the motto striving for equal opportunities for people with disabilities and fairness throughout) and Sue (an independent Leadership Coach and Mentor) conducted Zoom interviews with the co\u2010research team to reflect on our transition journey. In this creative video\u2010form submission accompanied by an accessible report, Lilly puts together a story of how we transitioned and felt throughout this process.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p>We identify that trust and the social bonds established at The Hub are the key components of our transition to the digital environment. There is the tension between longing for in\u2010person contact and trying to make the most out of the situation to maintain these relationships. At the heart of this is the motivation to \u201cchange the world\u201d and strive for social justice. Having time and opportunity to improve, and co\u2010researchers\u2019 steady growth in confidence are equally important.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>The
