Building Trust and Continuity in Research Engagement

This London-wide Research Engagement Network (REN) event will create space to recognise achievements, reflect on progress, strengthen connections and shape the next phase of inclusive research engagement.

It will be the first event to bring all the research engagement networks together for a collaborative and action-focused day to celebrate achievements and share insights from across sites.

• Time to connect, collaborate and exchange ideas with peers across organisations

• A live Research Chat Show on building and sustaining trusted relationships
• Informal networking opportunities throughout the day
