The MVLS INVOLVE group, in which IHW and GPPC's Dr Tracy Ibbotson has a lead role, is planning two Public and Patient Involvement and Engagement (PPIe) workshops for January 2019.

These will provide an excellent opportunity to discuss involvement, engagement and co-production with actively involved patients. They are free, and tea and coffee will be provided.

How do you get people interested, keep their attention to the end, get across all the information you need to in accessible everyday language? This workshop will give you a toolkit to help you write in a clear and direct way. bring your own lay summary or patient information sheet to work in in small groups and we will help you to transform the way you write for a public audience.
