Funding Now Open! Phase 2 of REN Community Research for Health

Does your organisation work with people with a story to tell? If so, you may be interested in becoming a community researcher!

The second phase of the Research Engagement Network (REN) Development fund is now underway to discover what matters most to people when it comes to health and care.

WVCA is offering free training and up to a maximum of £10,000 per project. WVCA is interested in projects looking at diverse communities in the Black Country, all ages, abilities and languages are welcome.

WVCA has already been working with community groups, charities and social enterprises, highlighting important case studies from within the Black Country about people’s health and care experiences. There has been amazing feedback and the second phase will expand this work even further, as evidence is provided to health commissioners about the important role our voluntary sector plays.
