Together, we're improving health and social care through research

We help to create a fertile ground for sharing and accelerating great ideas, pushing the boundaries for smart thinking, through seed funding research and innovation that is focused on the needs of our communities and will:

• Improve peoples’ health and address health inequalities.
• Embrace technology to support innovation and improvement in health and care services.
• Transform the organisation and delivery of health and care services, and make a difference to workforce, policy and practice.
• Build sustainable, resilient systems of support that meet people’s needs focused on what matters to them.
• Build a confident and skilled workforce that can lead research, improvement and innovation through career development opportunities, fellowship and scholarship schemes.
