The NIHR Applied Research Collaboration North West Coast (ARC NWC) encompasses health and social care providers, NHS commissioners, local authorities, universities, public advisers, the Innovation Agency (Academic Health Science Network), working together to learn more about these health inequalities, and overcome the barriers around translating these discoveries in health research into practice which improves lives.

We are currently consulting to find out what mental health organisations in the north west think mental health research priorities should be. Please follow the link to let us know what you think. This will allow us to better support projects that address local priorities If you have an interest in mental health research and haven’t completed these yet then please do as this will allow us to compare expertise with needs and better support projects that address local priorities. We will also be able to keep in touch with you about future mental health research opportunities.

The consultation on service priorities can be found here.
