Would you like to support the delivery of Community engagement and Patient and Public Involvement, Engagement and Participation (PPIEP) activities for a leading research centre in a community organisation? Are you experienced in developing and delivering effective and inclusive PPIE activities within a communty setting, evaluating the impact of activities and working collaboratively with a wide range of stakeholders? Do you have excellent communication and interpersonal skills with a desire to co-produce inclusive patient/public participation in research?

Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust (LTHT) in partnership with the University of Leeds (UoL) has been awarded a National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Leeds Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) with funding of £19.8million for five years. The NIHR Leeds BRC comprises of research groups in musculoskeletal diseases, surgical technologies, haematology (with the University of York), cardiometabolic disease, pathology, and antimicrobial resistance.

To ensure our PPIEP activities are inclusive and equitable for a wide range of groups, we have developed a partnership with Healthwatch Leeds to host and support a member of our PPIEP team within their organisation. Healthwatch Leeds works with members of the public to make their voice count in health and social care services in Leeds. They work across the city to bring peoples feedback to those who plan and deliver services. This will support the development of PPIEP activities with groups that are often not represented in research to ensure the PPIEP activities we develop, and deliver are co-produced with Public Partners (by ‘Public Partners’ we mean members of the public, patients, community groups and care givers who you will be working with) and are accessible, meaningful, and relevant to a wide range of audiences.
