Thank you to everyone who joined us for the PPI #SummerFestival 2026!
The day brought together public contributors, researchers, families and communities to celebrate the impact of public involvement in Leicester research.
A highlight of the day was a joyful performance from our Dance and Health community group, whose invitation to join in saw researchers, contributors and visitors dancing together.
A huge thank you to all our contributors for the time, insight and lived experience you continue to bring to our research.
