Description:

This is a practice case study. The key messages are:
• Public health research requires innovative public involvement approaches.
• Public involvement in everyday settings – where people work or meet socially – creates opportunities to reach different parts of the population, including people who are not interested in the research topic.
• Public involvement in such settings can be a mutually beneficial activity.
