Helen Featherstone
Head of Public Engagement
The strategic lead for public involvement and engagement with research for the VR³ÉÈËÊÓÆµ.
We work to advance and improve connections between VR³ÉÈËÊÓÆµ research and society through high-quality public involvement and engagement.
The Public Engagement Unit works with staff and community groups to build and support the practice and thinking around high-quality public involvement and engagement with research. We work across four strands:
Doing – we provide opportunities for involvement and engagement with research by managing a programme of opportunities, running a funding scheme and delivering activities that bring community-based groups and organisations and researchers together.
Learning – we offer a wide variety of training and professional development opportunities.
Celebrating – we reward and recognise high-quality public involvement and engagement with a bi-annual award scheme and raise the profile of researchers and projects undertaking excellent public involvement and engagement work.
Leading – we lead the agenda for public involvement and engagement with research at the University and across the sector.
