RDFunding : Success Story

In November 2004 Dr David Porter, The Scientific Director at the New Oxford Centre for Enablement (disability) was looking for funding to conduct research entitled “Does the use of a knee block influence hip deformity, functional ability and pain in children with bilateral cerebral palsy?” Dr Porter had used RDFunding previously and decided to have a look to find details of possible funding sources. The search turned up details of Remedi, Cerebra and Action Research. I am happy to report that following submissions to Remedi and Cerebra in April 2006 Dr Porter was successful in securing funding for this project.

RDLearning

The Primary Care Training Centre found out about us because people were contacting them concering their courses which they had found on our website.
They had not heard of us before, but will now provide information on all their courses.

RDDirect

One of the statisticians recruited from a directory of Academic Statisticians provided by Swansea University moved back to Africa but agreed to remain on our list of advisors.

Two new enquiries from Kenya (May 2006) seeking help with statistics were referred to him.
