I’m Dr Jenny Rayner, a Cardiovascular Medicine Consultant, and I’m applying for funding for a project to explore treatments for people with both cardiovascular disease and obesity.
I am seeking a group of PPI contributors with either cardiovascular disease or obesity, or who have had experience of cardiac rehabilitation, to support this grant application. People of all ages and backgrounds are welcomed.
The activities would include:
1. A Teams meeting at a mutually agreeable time in the next few weeks, to outline the proposed project and ask some specific questions about group members’ experiences if they are happy to share those, plus ask some feedback on the proposal.
2. Between the meeting and the middle of June, I would be very grateful for review of a plain English summary.
3. Going forward if the award is granted (we will know if we have been successful by the start of 2026), I’d be looking for volunteers to sit on the study steering committee.
The commitment is online initially.
Reimbursement
£25 per hour.
