National Institute for Health and Care Research

What does joining the network involve?

Important research across different areas of children and young people’s mental health

You will have access to a range of research opportunities which you can find out about through a regular newsletter that comes straight to your inbox, and here on our website.

Based on your choice and interests

It’s up to you to decide which opportunities you are interested in getting involved in and what areas are relevant to your lived experience. You will have access to a website to find out more about each opportunity.

Different ways to get involved that work for you

There are various ways you can get involved, whether that’s joining discussion group to share your ideas, completing a survey, or being part of a group to advise how a project is done.

Flexible and accessible opportunities

You can give as much time as you have, and there is no obligation to get involved in anything. It is all based on your availability and interest. There will be opportunities to be involved online and in-person. All opportunities will promote equality, diversity, and accessibility, to create a safe and collaborative space for all those involved.

Resources to help you get involved

We’ll also share resources, training and workshops through our newsletter and website, to help you navigate the world of research and feel able to engage more confidently.

If you’re interested in joining the network you can sign up using our short online form which is hosted by the Charlie Waller Trust.
