Data evidenced that both LEAP and study team members experienced a journey of learning and development in doing PPI that included friction and \u2018choppy waters\u2019. The study team valued lived experience partners and the knowledge and expertise they brought from the outset. However, issues such as low confidence in doing PPI among study team, changes in PPI team structure, COVID\u201019 pandemic moving work online and challenging some LEAP members over the relevance of their own lived experiences to the study, meant the journey was at times difficult.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Impact is about much more than quantifiable economic value.
