The NCTO would like to sincerely congratulate our colleagues at the UK Clinical Research Facility Network, hosted by Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT), having been awarded £2.4 million funding by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) to support the delivery of early phase research studies over the next 5 years. 

The UKCRF Network supports 54 CRF/Cs across the UK and Ireland, including our own partner CRF/Cs. This award speaks to a continually growing clinical trials sector in the UK and Ireland.  

We at the NCTO look forward to continued collaboration with the UKCRF Network and we are confident that this new award of funding is a strong endorsement of our shared goals of contributing to robust and world leading clinical trials ecosystems.
