Are you a Social Care Practitioner in Wessex?
A Bournemouth University research team would like to invite you to take part in an NIHR funded Wessex wide mapping exercise collecting data from practitioners working in the social care sector about their experiences to date of research and of using research evidence in their job.
If you are a practitioner working in the social care sector then we’d love to hear from you. Taking part would involve you completing an online questionnaire about your experiences concerning research and research evidence.
Data from this project will help us to develop a better understanding of the challenges of building capacity to undertake social care research in Wessex and the opportunities for building research engagement and capacity.

If you’d like to know more about the study before deciding whether to take part, please email the research team at Bournemouth University who will be able to assist you with any queries you might have.
