Projects to improve PPIE

Projects to improve Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE)
The Three Schools have a strong track record in public and community involvement and engagement. This ensures our research is more accountable, relevant and timely and promotes the relevance of our work to practitioners, policymakers and research users. Public and community involvement and engagement will continue to underpin all our activities and we will ensure the public continue to be involved in all aspects of our mental health programme.  This includes working in partnership with those with lived experience, families, carers and across settings including prisons, schools, care homes, domiciliary care, and Voluntary Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE) who deliver services.
 
To support increasing our understanding of working with these populations we would like to support a number of projects to improve public and community involvement and engagement and will specifically address working with the most underrepresented groups. 
 
We recognise that building trust and relationships with communities takes resources, time, and different approaches to involvement. Therefore, this call provides funding for individuals to trial and/or evaluate different approaches to involvement with these communities. It is our hope that through this funding researchers and research teams will be able to improve understanding of how best to work with these communities which can inform ongoing and/or future research.
