The GDC is seeking to procure a call off contract with an independent research organisation, to ensure we can involve and engage public and patients in a range of co-productive research and policy work. The overarching aims for the panel are: -to provide access to a group or groups of patients and the public, some of whose knowledge and understanding of GDC and dental regulation develops over time; -to ensure we reflect and harness the input of public and patients in as much of our work as is possible; and -to provide a flexible, responsive and cost-effective method for GDC to engage patient and public in our work. There are three main objectives for public and patient engagement in our work: -to provide independently facilitated evidence about public views and perceptions of topical or current issues in dental regulation; -to provide independently facilitated public and patient views on their experience of the quality of dental services; -to obtain independently facilitated public and patient feedback about regulatory research and policy initiatives or communications being considered, developed or undertaken by the GDC. The call off contract will be for a period of two-years, commencing in April 2022. We anticipate the value of the Contract will be circa £72,000 per year (£144,000 over the 2-year contract including any expenses and, if applicable, VAT).
