The CRC is a member of the Health Research Charities Ireland group (HRCI). One of the aims of HRCI is to support charities in Ireland to fund healthcare research to assist them in improving the lives of those they support.
The Health Research Board (HRB) has been co-funding the HRCI-HRB Joint Funding Scheme with the HRCI since 2006. The HRCI-HRB Joint Funding Scheme allows charities to support patient-focused research of particular interest to specific patient groups.
The CRC is participating in the HRCI-HRB Joint Funding Scheme in 2021 and will prioritise research projects consistent with our mission and values which are to work together to make a positive difference to the lives of people with disabilities, their families, and carers and that people with disabilities achieve their potential and live full lives as equal and valued citizens.
All researchers must submit their applications to CRC directly to be considered for the scheme. The HRB will manage the awards.
