Patient and Public Involvement, Engagement and Participation
John has a neurological condition. He supports our research:
"I get huge benefits out of the socialisation, and just knowing I can get here easily and take part and participate. Being part of the solutions. It’s just for my mental health, hugely, hugely important"
Patient and Public Involvement, Engagement and Participation (or PPIEP in short)
Our vision
Where meaningful public and community involvement and engagement is a central part of NIHR ARC Wessex’ health and social care research activities.
Over the last six and a half years patients and the public have supported our research in many ways. Helping to design research, co-producing research projects and their outputs, being an esstential part of the whole research process from inception to completion. In addition to their contributions during and after the research process, our public contributors have helped act as ambassadors for our work and helped to promote its findings.
Below are just some of the images over the years of our contributors.
