Join the Public Experience of Care Community

Your experiences of health and care services matter.

At Picker, we believe that listening to service users, carers and members of the public is essential to improving health and care for everyone. By joining our Public Experience of Care Community, you can help shape research, inform decision makers, and contribute to improvements in people's experiences of care across the UK and beyond.

Whether your experiences have been positive, challenging, or somewhere in between, we want to hear from people with a wide range of perspectives. There is no specialist knowledge required, just a willingness to share your experiences and views.

As a member of the community, you may be invited to take part in:

  • Online surveys and questionnaires
  • Research projects and interviews
  • Workshops and discussion groups
  • Webinars and learning events
  • Opportunities to review and provide feedback on new ideas and initiatives

You can choose which opportunities interest you and how often you get involved. There is no obligation to participate in every activity.

By sharing your voice, you'll help ensure that health and care services are designed around the needs and experiences of the people who use them.
