Who we are
We are the Norfolk and Suffolk Primary and Community Care Research Office.
The Research Office supports the strategic and operational development of all aspects of research across Norfolk and Waveney ICB.
The team is focused on embedding a shared culture of research and ensuring that research programmes help address population and health care service challenges.
Over the last 12 years, Norfolk and Waveney has consistently been the most research active primary care region in the UK, with the majority of GP sites and over 82,000 participants involved in research. Sustained investment in research development has delivered more than 18 NIHR grants, including Programme Grant for Applied Research grants (e.g. CHIPPS).
We are committed to making research central to commissioning decisions, and the work of the research office has broadened to help support the ICB's ability to commission evidence-based care and evaluate service change.
