Marie Curie Palliative Care Research Centre, Cardiff.

Tonight we launched our new work programme. This follows the successful refunding of our Marie Curie core programme award for a further 5 years. The event was a celebration of all that we have accomplished since 2010 and a chance to share our vision for the next five years.

We’ve launched a new toolkit to support researchers working with members of the public to:
-plan and integrate public involvement in research.
-track public contributions and the difference they make to the research.
-report impact against the UK Standards for Public Involvement.
