Have your say on the future of health research

Clock Icon11 March 10:00 am - 4:00 pm Map IconVoluntary Action LeicesterShire, LE1 5SN Free

Would you like to help shape decisions about how DNA (genomic) data may be used in health research?

We’re inviting people from across the East Midlands and East of England to take part in a one-day Citizens’ Jury to share views on how DNA (genomic) data could be used in health research in the future.

Researchers are exploring whether genomic data (information from our genes) could help improve research into conditions such as cancer and rare diseases. Before any future decisions are made, they want to understand what the public thinks.

You don’t need any special knowledge; you’ll take part in a series of facilitated discussions supported by trained facilitators.

  • Wednesday 11 March 2026
  • 10am–4pm
  • Voluntary Action LeicesterShire, 9 Newarke Street, Leicester LE1 5SN

You can take part if you’re 18+, live in the East Midlands or East of England and are willing to share your views. No experience needed.
