About us
Nottingham City GP Alliance (NCGPA) and Nottingham CityCare are two of the main organisations delivering primary and community healthcare across Nottingham City. Both organisations are committed to bringing care and research closer to people, including in their own homes.
We work side by side as part of the Nottingham City Place Based Partnership. Together, we support neighbourhood teams, GP practices and community services that care for some of the city's most diverse and underserved communities. Both organisations have a strong track record of collaboration and a shared ambition to grow research in areas where it can make the greatest difference.
Hosted by NCGPA you will join friendly teams who care about their communities and want research to be part of everyday care. You will help build something that strengthens primary and community services and opens up research opportunities for people who do not usually get the chance to take part.
