Summary:Patient and public involvement (PPI) in research has become expected practice by funders and Research Ethics Committees (RECs). Working with public contributors from the outset in designing and undertaking patient-related research aims to ensure that the focus is relevant to, and grounded in, their lived experiences. Despite sustained UK research policy advocating the importance of PPI, public contributions are often absent or minimal in reports of primary care research. Public contribution to a research study needs to be timely and proportionate. It is important to be clear from the outset why, how, and when public contributions would be useful.
