Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE)

Creating inclusive healthcare through partnership and lived experience
Curovia delivers culturally sensitive Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE) programmes that ensure the voices of underrepresented communities shape the design, delivery and evaluation of health and care services.
We support NHS organisations, academic partners, charities and innovators to meet the requirements of the NHS Patient and Public Involvement Strategy, with a focus on equity, cultural inclusion, and practical access for groups who are often left out of engagement activity.

We provide a full-service model of PPIE that includes:

Our facilitators have lived experience in UK South Asian communities and deep relationships with local leaders, cultural groups, and faith centres. This enables us to engage participants who are often excluded from traditional involvement panels.

We design and run PPIE events that are linguistically accessible and culturally appropriate. This includes translated materials, multi-lingual facilitation, and settings that feel familiar and welcoming.

We facilitate co-design workshops and advisory panels that enable patients and carers to actively shape services, research projects, and innovations.

We gather robust, meaningful feedback from participants using tools suited to varying literacy levels, ensuring insights reflect lived experience.

Our approach increases the participation of ethnic minorities, including South Asian communities, in research, helping ensure that studies reflect real-world needs and priorities.
