NIHR Policy Research Unit in Mental Health
The National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Policy Research Unit in Mental Health (MHPRU) was established at UCL and King's College London in 2017, and works closely with clinicians and service users at South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust. The PRU conducts rapid research to inform mental health policy at DHSC, NHS England, OHID and other government and arms-length bodies. It helps policymakers make timely nationwide plans for mental health services based on expert views and evidence.
