Improving Black health outcomes

This new research initiative is dedicated to studying health conditions affecting people from Black communities in the UK. The IBHO BioResource invites individuals from Black ethnic backgrounds to participate in research aimed at improving our understanding of how these conditions might develop and specifically affect those from Black communities.

We are running this research project across Newcastle GP practices, and will be in the community over the coming year, asking people to get involved.

To sign up to the study, get in touch on ngps.research@nhs.net.

Find out more about this study on the NIHR website.

Hear from one of our research participants, Anne, about why she got involved in IBHO.

We held a launch event for this project at Grainger Market, with special guest Dame Chi Onwurah MP. Watch the ITV Tyne Tees coverage of the event.
