The BIRU will also provide evaluations of some key interventions:
- Continuity of Midwifery Care
- CLICS

- Admiral Nurses (dementia)
- Welfare Benefits Advice
The BIRU also leads a community readiness research project that aims to understand how ‘ready’ the community are to address some key issues including:
