NHS Research Scotland (NRS) has funded a small bid from the Universities of Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Dundee and Glasgow to run some Patient Public Involvement (PPI) Workshops. The idea of the workshops is to have a collective dialogue about how we progress PPI in Scotland. These discussions will need Patients and those with lived experience, Researchers, Policy Makers and the Third Sector to share their experiences and aspirations for PPI in Scotland.

Details of what workshops that are available are below. Click each link to sign up.
