Your NHS Data Matters

Poplar Grove Practice collaborations with research data registries:

We are part of Clinical Practice Research Datalink which means that we contribute de-identified data to CPRD for public health research. CPRD is a real-world research service supporting retrospective and prospective public health and clinical studies.

Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP)

We are part of the Royal College of General Practitioners Research Surveillance Centre (RSC) which means that we contribute de-identified data to the RSC for public health research. The RSC is an active research and surveillance unit that collects and monitors data. 

Ultimately research helps people to access and take part in studies which could potentially make a real difference to their health conditions and quality of life.
