Introducing the new Public Engagement - mentoring scheme at St George's
Do you have expertise in public engagement? Perhaps you involve patients in your research, or you are experienced in writing NIHR grants? Or perhaps you have experience of school outreach or communicating science to the public in a way that is accessible and relevant to people's lives?
We'd like to invite any member of the St George's community with expertise in public engagement to become a part of the new Public Engagement mentoring programme (PE-mentoring).
This programme will complement and sit alongside the formal mentoring programme at St George's, but will focus on sharing expertise, knowledge and experience of public engagement. The mentoring process might be a single meeting to get some advice to help you get started, or it might be a more long-term mentoring relationship.
How does it work?

The Public Engagement Team will match mentors with mentees according to the public engagement support offered and required.
Guidance
Please read the accompanying PE mentoring guidance and complete the PE-mentoring agreement together at your first meeting.
Please also refer to the St George's Ethical guidelines for mentoring pairs.
Help us to evaluate the PE mentoring programme
At the end of the PE-mentoring partnership we ask that you each complete a short online evaluation form.
