Question 12

Question 13

How would you describe the challenge of involving your PPI work?

Question 14

How will you recruit PPI members in the future if you need to - e.g., if some leave?

Question 15

Do you consider trainings in EDI in your research? EDI courses – Centre for Ethnic studies on cultural competence

Question 16

For PPI meetings – you allocated £4604 in total for 6 meetings with 7 people – i.e. £110 per person for 6 meetings i.e. £18 per person per meeting. However, the recommended rate is £20 and also one of these is an in-person meeting which will need to pay more time for. Additionally, there seems no cost allowed for meeting prep time – is this required?

Question 17

You have budgeted £150/person for review time for 3 members involved. Clarify how has this been calculated? Based on £20 hourly rate, this means each person has a budget for 7,5 hours of work – is this reasonable?

Question 18

In the copy of the draft application I reviewed, the PPI cost line in total breakdown does not add up – PPI costs only £4283 but should be £4604+ £450 = £5354?

Question 19

Why have you not considered any dissemination to the wider public e.g. via social media?

Question 20

Can you explain how you carried out your PPI engagement while you developed this proposal? How many, who were they and how did you find and engage with them?

Question 21

Question 22

What advice did your PPI group give in terms of developing the guidance and dissemination to wider public ?

Question 23

Question 28

Where will you reach out to recruit PPI?

Question 29

Have you considered having an independent PPI Co-Chair to help you with your PPI meetings?

Question 30

Will you also interview your PPI in your qualitative part of your research? If so would this be considered as co-production?

Question 31

Will you do any training to your PPI group to help them bring up to speed with the basic contents of your research?

Question 32

How will your PPI feed across your entire PhD?

Question 33

A risk of the simulation studies is that they are time consuming to code and run, how will you account for this
