Community Health Research
Latest News on REACH Programme:
Because many people in our communities do not know the value of health and social care research, another vital part of this work is to empower more of the people who are often left out of planning and deciding how health and care services are delivered have their views heard by getting involved. So we are also keen to encourage conversations about health research in all our communities and support better links between community and research.
