Why Flucamp?
FluCamp is all about improving the health of the population, through increasing understanding around common viral illnesses.
Ultimately, the more that we understand about how viruses affect the human immune system, the quicker we can find and test better ways to treat them.
The end goal of clinical trials like those we conduct at FluCamp is to potentially eradicate these common illnesses completely – or at least make treatment of them as easy and effective as possible.
FluCamp has over 25 years’ experience of running clinical studies, all of which are ethically and regulatory approved.
Of volunteers would recommend FluCamp to their family & friends
(survey-based results from 2024).
Volunteers have applied to join FluCamp this year alone (based on applicants from January 2024-July 2024).
Our trials generally last 11-15 days and volunteers will be compensated for their help with our important research.
Our studies focus on testing new treatments on real people, in a safe, controlled, clinical environment. We welcome volunteers to take part in our clinical trials under expertly supervised conditions, to further medical research and understanding, and help us to take the understanding of viral illnesses to a new level. Volunteers like you are central to the work that we do; we couldn’t do it without you!
Our offices are open Monday to Friday, 9am – 5pm and our telephone team are available Monday to Friday, 8am – 7pm. If you are interested in volunteering in one of our clinical trials or require further information, please call us on 0207 756 1414. Alternatively, you can email us at [email protected]. For volunteers that have participated in a clinical trial, out of hours contact information will be given for anything urgent.
Taking part in a clinical trial can offer many benefits, and we know our volunteers sign up for various reasons. Our testimonials show just some of the motivations for people to sign up. Whether studying, working, or taking a break from both, FluCamp gives volunteers the benefit of being cared for in every regard whilst having plenty of ‘me-time’. FluCampers also choose to stay with us because they like to use the compensation reward towards travelling, a house move, or just for a financial boost.
We run clinical trials because we are dedicated to finding a cure for viruses like the flu. We welcome all fit and healthy volunteers, and appreciate what they are doing to aid our work towards finding a cure!
You can take part multiple times! You can do a trial with us every 3 months*. If you’ve taken part previously, and completed quarantine over three months ago you can re-apply via email at [email protected]. *Please note this is dependent on trial availability and participant eligibility.
We take great care in matching volunteers to an appropriate study. Once you’ve been invited to join FluCamp we’ll give you a detailed explanation of the trial we’ve allocated you to and then it’s up to you to decide whether to take part. Your choice does not impact on whether you would be eligible to take part in any future studies. FluCamp has a very strict health screening process to ensure that we only accept the lowest risk volunteers. As part of our volunteering process, we will check your medical history, and do some current blood, urine and ECG tests to establish your suitability. This allows us to make sure we are only recruiting volunteers who are healthy.
You can register with us at anytime! Before booking your first screening appointment we would recommend that you have good availabillity three months following this as this tends to be when the trial will take place. We know there may be some times in the year when volunteers have other commitments that may clash with FluCamp dates. If you can give us as much notice as possible, we’ll try our best to schedule visits and studies for times that you are available.
