Other ways to take part in research
Information about other ways you can take part in research including teletrials, research committees and donations.
Teletrials
If you live in a rural or remote area, you may be able to take part in a teletrial. This means having the support of your family and friends while you’re doing the trial and less travel and accommodation costs.
