There are four Research in Practice Teams (RiPT) in SCRiPT. Each RiPT is carrying out a research project from beginning to end. These new teams were created around a topic, or an area, of common interest. Each RiPT comprises 5-6 members, and include practitioners from a variety of disciplines and across the two counties (Hertfordshire and Norfolk).
RiPT members
SCRiPT is supporting the development of RiPT leads and RiPT associate members through bespoke research training. Part of this training is done in partnership with the NIHR ARC East of England, where RiPT leads join the ARC Fellow training programme for one year.
