Involving patients and the public in cardiovascular data research strengthens the quality, transparency and relevance to the public’s needs. It can enhance your research, build public trust and increase the public’s understanding of health data.
We support data researchers to embed meaningful patient and public involvement in cardiovascular data research. Our PPIE service provides direct advice and practical resources tailored specifically to each project to help researchers plan, deliver and evaluate involvement activities to ensure that research is relevant, inclusive and for the public benefit.
Explore the options below to find the support that best fits your research needs – from self-service tools to direct collaboration with our team.
Planning and design
Shape your research from the outset by designing inclusive ways for patients and the public to be involved, including co-designing your PPIE approach, designing engagement methods and activities and creating appropriate resource plans.
Building community
Provide support to connect you with patients and the public by building trusted relationships with relevant communities and lived experience groups who can inform and strengthen your work.
Establish relationships with public contributors and supporting the recruitment of diverse voices to ensure research reflects the priorities, concerns, and lived experiences of the communities it aims to serve.
Facilitation
Design and host accessible workshops which bring researchers and the public together to explore ideas and co-develop solutions. Use creative and flexible facilitation methods, provide independent facilitation and capture clear insights and outputs.
Material development and review
We develop, refine and review materials, including Plain English summaries and grant applications, to ensure they are clear relevant and shaped by public perspectives. We co-produce public-facing content, provide plain-language support, adapt materials for different audiences and offer evaluation support.
