We have recently sent out a text to patients asking you to complete a survey about ‘loneliness’.
The information gained is going to help shape services in the future and to help determine the areas of most need.
The survey takes a few minutes to complete and is anonymous. There is the option to take part in an interview and if you wish to do that you would be asked for contact details for that.
Thanks in anticipation for your help.

Knowle House Research is actively recruiting for a number of projects. We are working on a project which is looking to stop people getting a first heart attack or stroke. We are especially looking for people age 70-80 who are generally healthy. If this is you get in touch!

We will be starting a project soon looking at controlling blood pressure. More details to follow.
We really value our patients and are grateful for your participation in our research projects.
