Patient and public involvement

At the heart of the VOLITION project is a deep commitment to Patient and Public Involvement (PPI). We believe that the lived experience of older people and their carers is a form of expertise that is just as vital to our success as technical research knowledge. From the very beginning, public members have been integral partners in our work, helping us to co-produce our research approach and refine our intervention materials to ensure they are inclusive, understandable, and relevant to people from all backgrounds. By working together as one research team, we ensure that our findings lead to meaningful improvements in primary care and personalised support that truly reflects what matters most to patients in their day-to-day lives
