Description This internal Research Impact and Public Engagement Fund (RIPE) aims to support activities to cultivate and enhance relationships with non-academic partners such as patient charities, wider stakeholders, PPI representatives, and communities of practice within work and health. Through targeted engagement initiatives, we aim to broaden the reach and influence of the research outcomes derived from Workwell RCT
and Workwell Digital.

Furthermore, we intend to incorporate the perspectives of a wider array of stakeholders into the design of future study that will evaluate the impact of the Workwell Digital intervention. This intervention is designed to support individuals with arthritis in maintaining employment. The successful outcome of these endeavours is anticipated to yield high-impact health and social benefits.
