## Notice

In recognition of the challenges faced by Local Authorities, the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) has begun to widen its initiatives aimed at strengthening the research culture within Local Government, aiming to build and strengthen capacity and capability both within councils and academic institutions.
