What is impact?
Put simply, impact is the demonstrable contribution that our work makes to society – to individuals, communities, organisations, nations and the economy.
The NIHR Maternity Disparities Consortium is delivering an ambitious research and capacity development programme designed to make a meaningful difference to maternity care and help reduce inequalities across the UK. From informing policy and practice, to working with communities and strengthening research capacity, impact is embedded across our work. We partner with women, families, communities, health and care professionals, policymakers and other partners to ensure that our activities respond to real-world needs and contribute to meaningful change.
