Core Team
Core Team
The core team of the Deep End Research Alliance is a multi-disciplinary collective of eight academic and practitioner-researchers.
Our team is composed of academic researchers, primary care nurses and practicing GPs. This diverse experience ensures that we are uniquely positioned at the intersection of frontline clinical care and community advocacy to address health inequities at their root.

PPI group
Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) is at the heart of the Deep End Research Alliance.
We are privileged to work with a group of 12 individuals from a mix of underserved and racially marginalised communities across South Yorkshire and Humber.
Community Research Link Workers
Community Research Link Workers
Our Community Research Link Workers (CRLW) are the bridge between academic research and the community, ensuring our work is truly inclusive. They are members of underserved communities who are trained by DERA to help design and carry out research.
Through a range ofdifferent DERA projects, we have upskilled the research capacity of over 30 CRLWs from a range of underserved communities. Our CRLWs recruit participants, facilitate focus groups, contribute towards analysis and are the backbone of our research.
We meet three times a year, to offer peer support and informal education for people working in Primary and Community Care, with an interest in research.
The broad range of experience within the group provides an opportunity for people to learn from some of the very experienced Research Nurses we are fortunate to have working within South Yorkshire, offering support to staff that are taking their first steps into research.
