National Institute for Health Research is looking for carer reviewers – fee paid. 

You could improve the quality of health research

The National Institute for Health Research is looking for people across the UK who have first-hand experience of health conditions and/or health and social care services.  They are particularly keen to hear from carers.

Join the NIHR’s team of public contributors and you could review research briefing papers or proposals for Department of Health research funding.  This work is done at home and at your own pace. Your views would add a ‘real world’ perspective to academic research and ensure that the patient and carer viewpoints are properly included in research that is funded with public money.

Reviewers get guidance and support and are paid a fee for all review work to acknowledge the valuable contribution of ‘experts by experience’.
