The nursing professions' R&D priority-setting Initiative was established to increase the involvement of nurses, midwives and health visitors in research and development activities in the UK. A first phase of work explored the feasibility of establishing a systematic and coordinated process for identifying priorities for R&D for the nursing professions.

The second phase aims to build on the collaboration and cooperation achieved in phase one to establish a process and structure to promote a united professional voice for nursing on R&D (Scott et al., 1999). To this end, proposals were developed to establish a strategic alliance of the professional interests which would be known as the Strategic Alliance for Research in Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting. Part of the role of this alliance would be to lobby for funding for research activity in nursing.

This paper sets out to investigate the involvement of nurses with the nursing research charities and looks at ways nurses could improve their chances of obtaining funding from such sources.

Key Words: Nursing research • R&D • Funding
