We discussed the format of the evaluation, why we are collecting the data and what we plan to do with the data. We discussed the term impact and what we mean by impact in the context of public involvement. In small groups, group members were encouraged to reflect on their involvement and what the impacts may have been and make notes. This initiated great discussion with lots of ideas generated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"1606\" src=\"https:\/\/generic.wordpress.soton.ac.uk\/all-ears\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/455\/2025\/04\/IMG_2123-2-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1606\" srcset=\"https:\/\/generic.wordpress.soton.ac.uk\/all-ears\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/455\/2025\/04\/IMG_2123-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/generic.wordpress.soton.ac.uk\/all-ears\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/455\/2025\/04\/IMG_2123-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/generic.wordpress.soton.ac.uk\/all-ears\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/455\/2025\/04\/IMG_2123-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/generic.wordpress.soton.ac.uk\/all-ears\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/455\/2025\/04\/IMG_2123-2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/generic.wordpress.soton.ac.uk\/all-ears\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/455\/2025\/04\/IMG_2123-2-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-right is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-d445cf74 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-font-size has-small-font-size\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-primary-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/generic.wordpress.soton.ac.uk\/all-ears\/\">Return to our home page<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monday 7, April 2025 We started the meeting by welcoming Professor Nicci Campbell and Isabel McGauley from the Auditory Implant Service to our meeting, as well as new member Anna Tucker.
