Abstract
Background: The NHS is an organisation that not only utilises research in its day-to-day activities, but also produces a great deal of research itself. Unlike research produced within higher education (HE) institutions however, the ability of people to connect with research created within the NHS is not always as easy. This project is about the development and implementation of a system, an institutional repository, to support people to connect with our research. These systems are commonplace in HE, but relatively less common in the NHS. The implementation of this system and this project however has a distinctly NHS approach, which looks not only to develop connections between research and its audience, but also other connections as well.
