Children and Young People’s Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE) Pitch Event
The NIHR Mental Health Translational Research Collaboration Mission’s (MH-TRC) are hosting an online event exploring creative and inclusive Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE) approaches and ideas, focused on children and young people’s mental health.
Organised by the MH-TRC’s Children and Young People’s Mental Health workstream, the event aims to celebrate existing creative and engaging PPIE from real world mental health settings. The online session will also share new, fun, and creative PPIE ideas to bring diverse voices into children and young people’s mental health research.
The event will also see shortlisted applicants, which includes young people and parent/carer contributors alongside clinical and education representatives, present PPIE pitches to our panel of experts, chaired by MH-TRC Mission PPIE Lead Dr Lesley Booth. Following the event, winners will be announced and will receive £400 towards establishing their pitched PPIE idea.
The event is open to those connected to or interested in children and young people’s mental health. Including:
- Children and young people with lived experience of mental health conditions, challenging life experiences, and neurodiversity
- Parents and carers of the above
- Academics
- Community organisations within the mental health space
