Our Pro Bono division delivers projects free-of-charge to charities and not-for-profit organisations within the pharmaceutical and medical device sectors, with the aim of making a real difference to causes that our staff care about. We offer our full range of services on a pro bono basis, working collaboratively across our divisions and office locations to secure the right expertise to fulfil project briefs. Examples of recent pro bono projects can be found here and include creating patient information and education materials, and helping organisations to build their evidence base. To support local capacity building, we run an internship scheme that gives nationals from low- or middle-income countries skills in evidence-based medicine and health economics that they can apply to problems in their community. We also volunteer our time to local community projects as well as raise funds for local charities, nominated by our employees.
