It was tremendous privilege to run another Innovation Competition in partnership with QUOD and BTS, at the BTS Annual Congress 2026, in Llandudno on 5th March. The competition saw some fantastic and high-calibre projects proposed. All the finalists did a fantastic job presenting their ideas to the judging panel, making the selection difficult. As a charity, Live Life Give Life are focused on trying to fund projects that will have the greatest patient impact, as well as catalyze ideas that will produce longer-term research projects – and the winners convinced us that their projects would have such impact in the future.
