Are you a researcher looking for help with patient involvement in your study or recruitment support? There are a number of services we offer which could help. 

Advisory Groups

We have a number of advisory groups open to NIHR Maudsley BRC researchers. These groups can offer lived experience expertise on various stages of your research project.

Our Advisory Groups

How to involve people with lived experience in research

Guidelines for researchers who are interested in involving people with lived experience of mental ill health on steering and advisory groups for research projects.

Guidance on involvement in groups and committees

Consent for Contact (C4C)

The Consent for Contact (C4C) register allows patients at South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust to consent to be contacted by researchers if they are a potential match for research studies taking place within the Trust.

Study recruitment

The BRC communications team can offer advice and guidance on recruitment for studies. Please bear in mind that we are generally not able to offer more extensive support, such as running social media campaigns or making posters, etc. If you have an enquiry please contact the Communications Team.
