Breaking Boundaries

Thinking differently about public

involvement in research


Introduction
A strategic review to examine future options in
building an active collaboration with the public and
making best use of their skills, knowledge and
experience
Acknowledges the successful contribution in the last
decade from patients, carers and members of the
public to the work of NIHR
How can we build on achievements in public
involvement to deliver future ambitions for research
and a healthier nation?




Unlocking new ideas
All ideas are good ideas at this stage
Dont settle for 3 or 4 , go for 10-20
Wild ideas are welcome these can provide
breakthrough insights
Build on the ideas of others what can you add?
What do we need to pay attention to?
What do we need to escape?




Five areas of inquiry
1. Overall evaluation of progress to date
2. What stops public involvement?
3. Doing public involvement differently
4. How do we do it? The future design and
delivery of public involvement in NIHR
5. Where should we be with public involvement
in NIHR in ten years?
