Glasgow & the West of Scotland
Paid research studies in
Glasgow & the West of Scotland.
Glasgow, join The Collective and get paid to tell researchers what you really think about NHS services, everyday apps and the products your city uses. Studies are mostly remote, so you can take part from home anywhere in the west of Scotland. Amazon or Love2Shop vouchers paid within days.
Why Scottish voices matter in research
A lot of UK research is designed around England. Health and public services work differently in Scotland: NHS Scotland is run separately from NHS England, and services from social care to benefits are set up in their own way. Teams that want to get this right need to hear from people who actually use them here.
Glasgow is home to NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, the biggest health board in the UK, plus three universities and a large financial services and technology sector along the Clyde. That brings regular studies on patient experience, banking and insurance apps, and public sector services.
Remote studies are open across Glasgow, Paisley, Clydebank, East Kilbride, Lanarkshire and the surrounding towns. In-person sessions depend on the project, and we give the venue and travel details in the invitation so you can decide.
