Welcome to the RICH Voices podcast. RICH Voices (standing for Research In Care Homes Voices) are the lived-experience group of Enabling Research In Care Homes (ENRICH) Scotland and they have contributed to designing this podcast.

We will be speaking to the people behind the research, including people working in care homes, family members and researchers.
