The impact of our research

We invest in research to provide the evidence needed to drive policy and practice changes that can help deliver a better end of life for all. We consider the research we fund to have impact when it's taken up and used to benefit people affected by dying, death and bereavement.

 At Marie Curie, we work tirelessly to help ensure that the research we fund, support and deliver has the best possible chance of leading to policy and practice changes that can improve end of life experience. This is facilitated by the powerful integration between our research and policy teams at Marie Curie, as well as the strong links with our frontline teams who provide direct care and support.

In our latest research impact report, we look at how our investment in research and commitment to delivering impact is driving change across the UK and we highlight some of the key impact stories that research supported by Marie Curie has contributed to in 2021 and 2022. We also share key activities that have been delivered, such as targeted engagement with practitioners and policymakers, that have helped progress research along the pathway to impact.
