Our Strategy Group will ensure that public members are integral in the governance of the King’s Clinical Research Facility, and that their ideas and views are actively sought and taken up by staff. We will also:
- Add PPIE, and any EDI considerations as a standing agenda item in monthly management board meetings.
- Invite up to 3 public members to sit on our governance committee. The public members may meet with a sub-group of the governance committee to feedback ideas, and to report on PPIE activities. We want to make sure that PPIE members feel their presence is valued, and that they are supported to contribute to governance committees in a way that works for everyone.
- Designate up to 4 involvement champions among the CRF research nurses and clinical research practitioners. The involvement champions will be an additional point of contact and support for public members who wish to be involved. They will also encourage good practice and distribute PPIE documents and guidance to public members and other staff. Involvement champions may be designated to attend PPIE meetings or events in the place of the PPIE Lead if she is unavailable.
For reporting purposes, Cat Harvey, PPIE Lead is accountable to Elka Giemza, CRF Manager. The CRF Manager is accountable to Professor Peter Goadsby, the Director of the CRF.
