Delighted to present the final report for our DIPLOMA evaluation of the NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme. A true team effort - thanks to everyone who helped along the way
TL;DR prevention at scale is viable, with plenty of scope for optimising further

To support more ethnically diverse trials:
'Funders need to clearly signal to trial teams that the time and costs needed for greater ethnic diversity are not only accepted but also expected.'

Co-produced projects are a rewarding, messy rollercoaster of a journey!
Our new paper shares reflections on practicalities, learning and challenges throughout the co-production journey of InCLUDE, based on our personal reflective diaries.

After months of speaking with professionals in trials, a key takeaway: intersectionality is poorly understood and hard to implement. While inclusion is vital, we need simpler, practical ways to apply intersectionality in trials. More insights to come! #ICTMC2024 #ClinicalTrials

Does belonging to multiple disadvantaged groups = worse health? π€ My review shows that it does. This is why clinical trials must address intersectionality if we are to properly tackle health inequalities. #ICTMC2024 #PhD #ClinicalTrials #Intersectionality

Discussion in the retention and follow up session on why we don't capture experiences of people who stay in trials. @Bowercpcman led the development of this measure for exactly that. Now let's think about implementation of said measure f1000research.com/articles/1β¦ #ICTMC2024

One week to go! Final call for people to complete our survey. We want to know what people think about clinic letters written by #Rheumatology healthcare professionals. You do not need to have received a clinic letter to take part. Survey closing at 09:00 on Friday, 27 September.
Have you attended two or more #Rheumatology outpatient appointments in the UK NHS/HSC? If so, you could help us understand what people think about clinic letters and who they are written to. To complete our survey, or for more information, please visit: bit.ly/W2Pptsurvey
