Research Project Survey
As part of this project, we have a survey which is open until the 4th of March. It is open to residents in Northamptonshire over the age of 11 and is the perfect way for you to make your views matter. The survey can be located at the bottom of this article.
Following a successful bid in securing funding from NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care in October 2023, the delivery of a Research Engagement Network (REN) Project in Northamptonshire is in progress. Healthwatch North and West Northamptonshire is currently working with partners across the county to deliver the project, with the final report due by the end of March 2024.
The aim of the REN project is also to work in partnership with voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise (VCFSE) organisations to engage under-represented groups and communities. such as under-served groups with protected characteristics as well as inclusion health groups, to improve participation in NHS research.
We want to better understand what the barriers are and encourage community champions to join us along the way.
