creating impact through quality research
Expert support in research, evaluation, and ethical innovation
We specialise in delivering high-quality research and evaluation services that meet ethical and legal standards, ensuring impactful outcomes for health and innovation.
About Us
Lemic Consulting was established to translate over a decade of experience in public health research and evaluation into practical consultancy support for organisations and research consortia. Our founder has led and contributed to multiple UK and EU-funded initiatives, including government, NIHR, Horizon Europe, and charity-supported projects, focusing on health inequalities, health policy, health systems, healthcare access, ethical governance, and digital health.
We help organisations design, implement and evaluate projects, conduct evidence reviews, develop ethical and governance frameworks, and engage meaningfully with communities and stakeholders to ensure impactful and inclusive outcomes.
We believe that research should not only generate evidence, but also create clarity and practical solutions that can be applied in real-world settings.
