SUMMARY:What we Carry: Living with Pain
DESCRIPTION:What We Carry is a collaborative art-science project led by artist Marysa Dowling \, BRC: Oxford Health\, the University of Oxford and the Chronic Pain Neurotechnology Network+. \nIt uses photography and creative expression to make the invisible experience of chronic pain visible. \nBy helping people articulate what is often misunderstood or difficult to verbalise\, the project offers a powerful platform for exploring the emotional and social dimensions of living with pain. \nThe What We Carry: Living with Pain in person exhibition will be at the Life and Mind Building\, South Parks Oxford from 14 September. \nFor more information: Whatwecarry online and/or our Pain Theme web page BRC: Oxford Health Pain Theme.

SUMMARY:Building Social Care Research into Practice
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to announce a series of interactive workshops aimed at operational and strategic leadership in social care (both adult and children) in partnership with colleagues at ADASS. Practitioner-led research in social care is a priority for the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR)\, which offers a range of development opportunities to help practitioners build their skills and knowledge. However\, as many of us know\, social care practitioners apply for these opportunities less frequently than health practitioners.\n\n\nThis series of interactive workshops are aimed at operational and strategic leadership in social care across statutory\, voluntary and independent sector providers. It will draw on perspectives from across the sector to explore the organisational benefits of developing a research-minded and capable workforce\, provide guidance and information about the funding and support available from the NIHR Academy and the Research Support Service\, and explore effective strategies for and barriers to involvement across regions. Building this understanding will help to develop recommendations for the NIHR on how to promote involvement and address barriers. \nEvent timings \n10am-10.30am: Arrival & refreshments \n10.30am-11.30am: Exploring the organisational benefits of practitioner research \n11.30am-12.30pm: Local learning: effective strategies and persistent challenges for practitioner research in social care \n12.30pm-1.30pm: Lunch and networking \n1.30pm-3.30pm(optional): One to one consultations with the practitioner research specialists in the RSS Specialist Centre for Social Care \nReserve a spot on Eventbrite.
