MoTaStim-Foot explored whether it was feasible to deliver treatments to help people feel their foot better after stroke. The results of this study have been published elsewhere (1). Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) advisors played an important role. They worked voluntarily, actively advising the research team; the term ‘PPI advisor’ is used within this article, following consultation with our PPI advisors. They were involved during idea generation and discussions about whether the study was important to pursue. In addition, they advised the research team during the study setup helping to write the plain English summary, the participant information sheets and advised on other research activities. Following relevant training, PPI advisors were involved in delivering the research including note-taking during focus groups. One PPI advisor also helped analyse the focus group transcripts and attended the UK Stroke Forum to present the results of the study. Reflecting upon the impact of the PPI advisors’ contributions to the MoTaStim-Foot study has evidenced that not only was there great benefit to the research team and process, but our PPI advisors gained satisfaction from being involved in the research, planning, design and delivery.
