As a health innovation network, our role is to support the support the discovery and development of promising innovation and the deployment of proven innovation in response to local health and care priorities and our shared focus on reducing health inequalities.
Through our evaluation and insights function, we support our system partners in quantifying the impact and added value of innovations.
Our Evaluation and Insights team is embedded within programmes of work across the organisation, facilitating their analytical and evaluation requirements. The team is structured in two divisions, with evaluation services specialising in theory-driven work and analytical services supporting quantitative collection and analysis.
We also benefit from established partnerships with other research organisations, such as NIHR Applied Research Collaborative (ARC) West.
