Produce overall partnership research and knowledge mobilisation plan

To produce a plan detailing the individual research projects that will be delivered by the partnership during 2026 to 2030.

On commencement of the partnership, we will create a knowledge mobilisation plan that will highlight opportunities for early information sharing and dissemination in support of same day and urgent care service provision. For example, findings from reviews may help to shape service decision-makers. This early engagement with the sector will also raise the profile of the SURGE partnership and its work, creating further opportunities for engagement in the medium-longer term.

We will create an overall partnership research plan describing our proposed projects from months 12-60, including project teams, timescales, and deliverables. In collaboration with the NIHR, and the partnership oversight groups, we will co-create a ‘living’ plan from the outset of each project to ensure we consider knowledge mobilisation opportunities and the pathway to impact throughout the whole lifetime of a project, rather than on completion alone. This will allow sharing of early findings to influence decision-making as they become available, in addition to final outputs.

The outputs will be a detailed partnership research plan and associated blueprints for knowledge mobilisation.
