Public and practice involvement and engagement is essential for the School for Social Care Research because it ensures the research addresses the real needs and priorities of those using, seeking or working in social care.
By involving the public and social care practitioners, the School gains valuable insights and perspectives that make research findings more relevant and impactful. Collaboration enhances the quality and usefulness of research, helping to shape better social care policies and practices.
