As part of the NIHR-funded Implement SWATs programme, host trial teams are invited to collaborate with us to test the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of monetary incentives for improving participant recruitment and retention in trials.
The Implement SWATs team will lead on writing the SWAT protocol, supporting documents and the ethical application, with the aim of keeping the burden to host trial teams undertaking the SWATs to a minimum. The team can support trial teams to include monetary incentive SWATs into their funding bids too.
We will also undertake a process evaluation, as part of which we will explore potential ethical issues surrounding offering monetary incentives to trial participants.
