Our public events & surveys

As part of our work to hear from people across the Yorkshire & Humber, we worked with local volunteer groups to host workshops in their communities. Have a closer look how we work with public and what we have learnt so far from our communities in our reports.

Stay in touch via our newsletter to learn about upcoming opportunities and help to shape healthcare research in the Yorkshire and Humber region.

What we have learnt from our communities so far

In these workshops, we learned that people wanted to know more about how data is accessed and used in research, and what we really mean when we talk about ‘your data’. Everyone in the workshops also wanted us to be honest and clear about the strong security measures we put in place to keep people’s data safe. All the workshops were led by volunteer groups, and they wrote the reports to make sure the conversations were accurate and truly reflected what their communities said.
