Inclusive involvement in research Research on health and social care should involve patients, service users, carers and members of the public with different experiences.
Measurement in Health and Social Care This theme works to measure and understand people’s health and care needs, and evaluate the approaches used to support these.
Mental Health and Wellbeing This theme aims to improve mental health outcomes for those communities especially vulnerable to mental health inequalities in the East of England.
Palliative and End-of-Life Care Our theme seeks to generate high‑quality evidence to improve palliative and end‑of‑life care experiences for everyone involved.
Prevention and early detection in health and social care This theme aims to address health inequalities and to work with local communities and health and social care organisations to develop and evaluate prevention and early detection strategies.
Social Care, Dementia and Ageing This research identifies the best ways to improve how older people and anyone living with multi-morbidity are supported by health and social care and their local communities to stay well and be active members of their communities.
