Support to get involved in health and social care research
Getting involved in research can be a rewarding and worthwhile experience. If you are interested in learning more, we recommend that you read guidance developed by the National Institute of Health and Care Research (NIHR): 'Public Information Pack (PIP) - How to get involved in NHS, public health and social care research'. You can also find out more about people's experiences of being involved in research by viewing this series of videos from Healthtalk.org.
- Our 'Building Research Partnerships' training is also suitable for anyone who is involved in or is interested in getting involved in health and social care research.
- You might also wish to consider joining our group of trained PPI partners who support HSC R&D Activities. The group is called 'PIER' (Public Involvement Enhancing Research) and you can find out more by clicking here.
- We also have a resource library for anyone with an interest in Personal and Public Involvement in research.
