Can you help #NIHRLeicesterBRC researchers understand the impact of hot summer days on our health? They're looking for people aged over 45 in #Leicestershire to take part. This would involve having a small monitor in your home & answering a few questions. : leicesterbrc.nihr.ac.uk/hot-summer-e...

Bowel cancer is the 4th most common cancer in the UK, but it's also one of the most preventable. At the #NIHRLeicesterBRC, researchers are exploring new ways to stop bowel cancer before it starts. Learn more about @cancerresearchuk.org Coloprevent Trial coloprevent.co.uk #BowelCancerAwarenessMonth

Every participant who takes part in research studies at the #NIHRLeicesterBRC is asked for their feedback, so we can learn from their experiences. ⤵️ If you're asked to complete the Participant in Research Experience Survey, please do so. For more on our work, please visit: leicesterbrc.nihr.ac.uk

It felt goof that I was being 'watched over' by the team. It's positive to note the results may help others.
