Research: ASPIRE - listening and learning

Season 2, Ep. 5


This week we learn what an ACE is from the NSFT research team, who tell us about their unique study that trains up care-givers to help children who have had adverse childhood experiences when they were young. We hear from Brioney Gee who is the lead on the ASPIRE study, research assistant psychologist Isabela and co-applicant Tina whose family have experienced ACEs. This podcast is the second of three podcasts (Season 1 Ep 13 is the first) which are going out over the duration of the ASPIRE project to give a sense of how the project is progressing and how co-production is a vital part of how this intervention is taking shape. ASPIRE is taking many experts by experience and work to create a very special project. As Tina says, "As part of the group I have been very much valued and listened to." ASPIRE is funded by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR).


The National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) is the nation's largest funder of health and care research. The NIHR:

  • Funds, supports and delivers high quality research that benefits the NHS, public health and social care
  • Engages and involves patients, carers and the public in order to improve the reach, quality and impact of research
  • Attracts, trains and supports the best researchers to tackle the complex health and care challenges of the future
  • Invests in world-class infrastructure and a skilled delivery workforce to translate discoveries into improved treatments and services
  • Partners with other public funders, charities and industry to maximise the value of research to patients and the economy.

 

The NIHR was established in 2006 to improve the health and wealth of the nation through research, and is funded by the Department of Health and Social Care. In addition to its national role, it supports applied health research for the direct and primary benefit of people in low- and middle-income countries, using UK aid from the UK government.
