My research interests are in community engagement, and health and social care services delivery and policy. Current research projects include: - NIHR, Evaluability analysis of the link worker model of social prescribing - NIHR, Supporting survivors of sexual violence: a mixed methods, co-research study of the role, funding and commissioning of specialist services provided by the voluntary sector in England (the PROSPER study). I am Patient and Public Involvement adviser and regional lead for social care for the NIHR Research Design Service West Midlands. My expertise is in qualitative and mixed methods and I am co-lead for Warwick Medical School's 20 CAT Masters module Mixed Methods in Health Research. I take a strongly interdisciplinary approach in my work, combining insights from the social and health sciences to address complex questions in health and social care.
