The National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) in collaboration with the Clinical Research Network are showcasing the diversity of health and social care research in ‘People are Messy’.

The event will begin with a film screening of ‘People are Messy’, a Theatre of Debate production which shows the dramatisation of patient and public involvement within health research. This will be followed by an interactive session involving a structured question and answer session, where the audience will be asked to participate and contribute to a national survey. There will be an opportunity to find out about local initiatives and how you can get involved in health research. Please note, the film is hard-hitting and contains mild language.
“This fabulous, entertaining and moving film goes to the heart of why involving patients and the public is so important to science and to society.” – Simon Denegri, NIHR National Director for Patients and the Public
This is part of a series of NIHR events around the United Kingdom to celebrate International Clinical Trials Day 2017. To find out more about the campaign and how you can get involved, visit www.iamresearch.co.uk. Don’t forget to get involved on social media using the hashtag #IAmResearch.
