Research academy

Supporting general practice participation in research - addressing health disparities and improving primary care within communities.

Our Service

Our research academy team work in partnership with practices across East Lancashire to expand access to primary care research.

With research playing an increasingly important role in improving health outcomes, we support practices to take part in a way that is practical, manageable, and aligned with day-to-day patient care.

By getting involved in research, practices can:

  • Enhance care for their community
  • Offer patients early access to potential new treatments
  • Ensure that patient voices are heard
  • Help to build a stronger more resilient NHS
  • Improve care standards across Lancashire
  • Access funding and additional resources to support the delivery of research activity.

Whether you’re new to research or already involved, our team can support you to take the next step and make participation work for your practice.
