About the HS&DR Programme

History of the HS&DR Programme

Funding Opportunities

The NIHR Health Services and Delivery Research (HS&DR) Programme funds research to improve the quality, effectiveness and accessibility of the NHS.

The HS&DR Programme aims to produce rigorous and relevant evidence on the quality, access and organisation of health services, including costs and outcomes. The programme will enhance the strategic focus on research that matters to the NHS including research on implementation and a range of knowledge mobilisation initiatives. It will be keen to support ambitious evaluative research to improve health services.

The HS&DR Programme is the result of the merger of two former NIHR Programmes, the Health Services Research Programme (HSR) and the Service Delivery and Organisation Programme (SDO). The aims of both programmes will be carried forward into the HS&DR Programme.

The HS&DR Programme Directors’ Word is now available, reflecting on the first year’s achievements of the HS&DR Programme. It also includes useful advice on developing an application to the programme.
