Patient and public involvement (PPI) in health and social care research: A handbook for researchers

This handbook is to help researchers and research teams to plan, manage and carry out PPI activities.

Demonstrating PPI and the continued involvement of patients and members of the public is a very important part of developing a successful grant application and is often a marker of quality research.

Involving patients and members of the public can seem a time consuming and daunting prospect for new and experienced researchers alike.

This handbook will give a firm foundation in PPI and give insights into the contributions that patients and members of the public can make.
