What are we doing?

We're conducting a clinical trial to see if sparkling water is an effective treatment for individuals suffering from dehydration.

We're recruiting patients and want to be sure that we have a diverse patient cohort.

We need your help to recruit our study population and we'd like to partner with you on this study. That means you'll receive public recognition for your role and you'll be included as a co-author on any resultant publications.

Why do we need healthcare professionals?

Pharmaceutical companies are not allowed to contact patients directly in the UK, so medical professionals are the direct contact for patients getting involved in clinical trials and the main recruitment source.

HCPs will be the ones running the trial in medical centres and play a major role in ensuring continued participation in the study - we want a diverse population of patients to sign up but also follow the study to completion. Statistics show that when working with new HCPs and on new treatments, patients from many ethnic minority groups in the UK are more likely to feel like they are not treated with respect and dignity, and this has led to a lack of trust.
