We support research that benefits people who use our services and the communities we serve. We have studies for children and young people, dementia, substance misuse, eating disorders, learning disabilities and mental health.
Every now and again we have research that seeks to explore the views of members of the public. These studies are generally mental health related and open to everyone. We value those who volunteer their time and opinions to complete questionnaires, without whom a lot of research and progression would not be possible. Please see below for the latest opportunities to participate.
