Calling all health and social care researchers! Are you seeking ways to design more inclusive research opportunities? You are invited to join us for our next stakeholder event on Monday 7th October, where we are collaborating with community groups and people who are homeless and vulnerably housed to design inclusive ways of involving people who do not typically engage in research.
Purpose: The aim of the I am more than…. project has been to create inclusive, shared spaces for people from the homeless community (people who are homeless or vulnerably housed, as well as the staff and volunteers who support them) to share with health and social care researchers and colleagues what having a voice and being involved in research means to them. This allows us to come together to understand the barriers and enablers to participation and to co-create inclusive opportunities in health and social care research.
This event will share updates on the learning so far and be used to co-design a sustainable model for researchers to harness the expertise of people with lived experience of homelessness and being vulnerably housed. Together, we will explore how to develop research collaborations with voluntary and community sector organisations.
