Abstract
Background:�Research active organisations achieve better healthcare outcomes. The Research ABC Project (Allied Health Professions (AHPs) Building Research Capacity Across the Black Country), funded from 1/8/23-31/3/24 by a Clinical Research Network West Midlands Improvement and Innovation grant, was commissioned to facilitate the Black Country Integrated Care System to address the four domains of Health Education England's AHPs' Research and Innovation Strategy for England (capacity, capability, context and culture). This evaluation aimed to understand research-readiness, initiate research skills development through bespoke training, increase research capacity of the local AHP Community and inform the Integrated Care Board of future requirements.
