SPCR Involvement and Engagement Funding Calls

SPCR PATIENT AND PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT AND PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT GRANT

OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL IN SPCR DEPARTMENTS

The patient and public involvement and public engagement projects need to have a strong link to primary care research. For more information about the scheme, please read the guidance notes provided below.

Funding can be requested for up to £8,000. The School aims to fund a combination of smaller and larger projects.

SPCR Engagement and Dissemination grant 

Linking to local or national awareness campaigns - An opportunity for SPCR funded research.  

The NIHR School for Primary Care Research (SPCR) has a track record of funding high quality primary care research. As well as raising awareness of primary care research, we are committed to increasing engagement and dissemination activities.

As such, the SPCR is launching a second funding call for engagement and dissemination activities.

Researchers may apply for small bursaries, of up to £800, to engage and disseminate SPCR funded research amongst non-academic audiences. Activities may include public talks, hands-on activities in a community setting, information stands in public spaces or virtual workshops with non-academic professionals. Creativity in the types of activities proposed is particularly encouraged.
