Communicating your research
Engaging with people about research, why it matters and what it means for them is now an essential activity both for your career and for the future of research in the UK.
Communicating clearly and efficiently is a familiar aspect of this; however, there are now extensive opportunities and established approaches you can use to actively engage with different groups.
Whether you are new to public engagement or already have some experience, the Wellcome Trust can help. We can offer advice and help to develop your engagement at every stage of your career. Through our communication training and engagement support, we can help you, your group or centre to talk with people in an effective and rewarding way.
Training and support
Free training and support is available to all Wellcome funded researchers wanting to engage people with their research.
If you are not Trust funded but are interested in public engagement, you can still benefit from the support that we provide to other organisations.
Public engagement funding
As well as providing training, the Wellcome Trust also funds public engagement events and activities. If you would like to organise an event, you can apply for a grant.
