Make your research more inclusive
Ensuring the diversity of research participants is essential for ethical, robust and impactful research. A renewed focus on accessible participant information materials from funders such as NIHR means that inclusive design must be considered from the outset of the research project. Getting your materials right first time will mean less delay getting ethics approval.
We have first-hand experience producing accessible participant information materials for large, health and social care research projects and can help you to recruit more diverse participants, PPIE group members, and staff.
