We continue to coordinate IMPaCT Roundtables, which bring together key individuals with expertise from academic, health and social care, and third sector organisations, along with patient and public advisers who have lived experience.

Our Stroke IMPaCT Roundtable has recently launched a consultation to develop an overview of stroke activities in the North West Coast, to identify gaps and promote collaboration between members. The Roundtable has been successful in bringing together individuals from different organisations involved in stroke care delivery and research, and intends to have impact on patient care and outcomes at a strategic level. The Roundtable has facilitated discussions on a variety of topics related to improving the delivery of care for stroke patients (e.g., quality improvement methods, accurately capturing patient experience, integrating care across an entire pathway, the role of data to measure change).
