Research and clinical trials
Research is vital to improving the care that you receive. You can help improve healthcare by taking part in research studies at our Trust. During your appointment, ask your healthcare professional about research. They'll be happy to tell you about research studies you could be eligible to join.
At your appointment, we may also ask if you would like to take part in research. If you do not want to take part, this will not affect your care in any way.
You can email [email protected] for more information.
