In East Sussex we have created a Research Collaborative Hub (RCH) which is a 12-month partnership between the University of Brighton (UoB) and East Sussex County Council (ESCC).
There are a range of resources on this site, organised by topic. These are some of the main types.
Needs Assessment
In-depth look at the health and wellbeing issues facing a specific population. Produced in partnership with experts from a range of organisations.
A needs assessment should use evidence to identify:
- the level of need in a population and how well those needs are met
- effectiveness of current services and support
- recommendations to meet needs and use resources effectively
