Reducing health and social inequalities through the co-production of a sustainable community partnership
The Bescura Project brought together Keele University researchers and Bescura Ltd to co-produce a sustainable community partnership aimed at tackling health and social inequalities in Stoke-on-Trent.
Through community engagement, including coffee mornings and group sessions, the team identified key local needs - such as gaps in early childhood assessments and rising mental health challenges post-COVID. The project has not only informed future research proposals but also strengthened local collaborations and supported early career researcher development.
