Patient and Public Involvement

About

CARRii is committed to ensuring that its research is shaped, driven, and informed by those most affected by respiratory conditions. Our PPI Platform brings together a network of over 150 patients and public contributors to co-develop research, influence policy, and champion change.

This platform promotes best practice in public involvement across all our work. Through training, collaboration, and partnership-building, we are creating a pipeline of future applied respiratory researchers and patient advocates with the knowledge, skills, and capacity to lead change.

CARRii will support this effort by:

• Embedding researchers in clinical settings

• Working with commercial partners to explore innovative approaches

• Collaborating with Health Innovation Networks and the NHS

• Engaging policymakers and patient advocacy groups to ensure research has real-world impact

Our long-term goal is to make the UK a global leader in applied respiratory research - one where public voices are not only heard, but drive lasting improvement in health outcomes.

Putting people with lived experience at the centre of respiratory innovation.
