About us
About REACH
We help organisations deal with the big challenges facing them, whether that means developing better products and services, identifying cost savings, or building the evidence base for policy change.
Our team combines academic rigour with professional experience in health and social care.
We make it easy for you to access the specialists who can help your organisation achieve its goals - as we have for Age UK, Astellas, Urgo Medical and many others.
How we can help
When you work with the REACH team you get leading academic expertise applied to the unique challenges of your organisation.
We assemble a bespoke team from inside the University to service each project we take on - so you can be confident you are getting the best expertise for your needs.
We can analyse existing in-house or external data sets or generate new data through quantitative methods, qualitative methods and mixed methods.
The impartial and robust analysis and advice we provide gives invaluable insight into the effectiveness of products and services - and the experiences of people who use them.
Approaches we take include:
- conducting independent expert evaluations of products, services and programmes
- analysing complex, real world evidence to gain new insights into products and their use
- researching service user and patient experience to drive improvements in quality and outcomes
-
carrying out health technology assessments to support NICE submissions
- using co-production and public involvement in service and product design
- applying psychometrics to develop person-specific approaches to treatment
- providing health economics analysis to strengthen business cases
