Engaging Communities amazing Volunteers

We are involved in:

ASPIRE is a five-year, £2 million research programme funded by the National Institute of Health Research.  We aim to develop and evaluate cost-effective and sustainable ways to implement evidence-based general practice.

We developed an adaptable, evidence-based implementation package to address four different clinical and population health priorities.  We are evaluating the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of this implementation package within a large ‘real world’ randomised evaluation.
