Be Part of Research
Posted on:
Life-changing treatments start with people like you
- Every time someone receives treatment for a health condition, it’s because of the many people who took part in health and care research. But to improve health and care for all of us, we need everyone to get involved.
- Without research, there would be no Covid vaccines – or no new treatments for cancer. It’s the people who take part in research who make these vital discoveries possible.
- In the UK, around a million people just like you take part in health and care research every year, and with your help, research can go further and faster.
Good research needs everyone to get involved
- Whatever your age, ethnicity, gender or background – you can make a huge difference to the health and care of tomorrow.
- Both healthy people and those with health conditions are needed to take part in health and care research. Whatever your state of health, you can help find new and better ways to treat diseases, and improve care.
- To ensure everyone benefits from research, it’s important that everyone is represented. Taking part will help ensure
that new treatments, tests, and services are suitable for you, your family, and your community.
You can choose to take part in a study at a time and location that suits you
- From a simple survey that you could complete in minutes from your sofa, to testing a new innovative medication, there’s a study waiting for you!
- Be Part of Research makes it easy to take part in health and care research. You’ll be matched to suitable studies taking place near you and the decision on whether to take part is always yours.
