Marie Curie’s commissioned research funding calls support ongoing activity at the charity, such as policy and campaigns activity. These differ to our standard research funding calls, as Marie Curie leads on communications and often on publication.
We are currently seeking applications for the following commissioned research project:
Call for research to understand variation in access to, and availability of, palliative and end of life care medications across Wales
The project aims to build greater understanding of different approaches to anticipatory prescribing and the provision of end of life care medications across Wales. It will provide essential insight on the reasons for variation and on the impact on those living with terminal illness and the wider health system.
Funding of up to £25,000 (excluding VAT, if applicable) is available for this research project, depending upon the scope and scale of the proposed plans.
The call is now open and will close on 4 September 2025 at 5pm. To apply, please complete the application form as well as the supplier information questionnaire for new suppliers (if applicable).
We would encourage interested applicants to get in touch with the commissioning team at research.grants@mariecurie.org.uk to notify us if they are intending to apply.
