  People should really be aware of what they are letting themselves in for when volunteering. It’s a massive commitment. The facilities are dated, like a old NHS hospital, so don’t expect a private modern clinic. The food on my trial was terrible. My ten day trial felt like a month. Showers, wards etc…al terribly dated. The thing that really annoyed me with the outpatient visits is that they are so badly organised. Don’t expect them to be quick, sometimes they take half a day because they have everyone turn up all the same time, not enough beds and staff, so you end up waiting around for hours for something that should take ten minutes. Why they don’t stagger outpatient times I don’t know. Plus there is no onsite parking which is ridiculous for some trials as many outpatient visits are required. Some of the staff a great, and they do show a little flexibility when it comes to outpatient visits so it’s not all bad. But on the whole for the money paid it’s not worth the effort and risk in my opinion. They not pay you on the promised dates either, you have to keep chasing for payment which I found extremely disrespectful. You get fined if you were to miss any outpatient visit of not follow their schedule however it seems to not apply the other way around. On the whole a badly organised organisation.

  I highly recommend Covance. Such a great team of staff from the recruiters, the screening, during the trial and the canteen staff. All amazing. I would ignore the negative reviews and try Covance for yourself. I never understand why people complain, your being paid for your time, to relax, unwind, be fed and looked after. Covance have to recruit more people than necessary because anything can happen on the day with your results so be prepared. There's lovely grounds to walk around and a good atmosphere. Will be returning as soon as a suitable trial becomes available. :-)

  Great place with amazing staff,who make you feel very welcome. Wayne is great guy and always makes time for all volunteers and I can always tell when it's his shift,as his laugh is infectious and lifts everyone's spirits, including his work colleagues. I need to mention the kitchen staff aswel,as they take a lot of stick at time's, which is very wrong,as all volunteers are getting well paid to be here and in my opinion the food is very nice and free,so people should keep quiet and be more appreciative.(YOUR GETTING WELL PAID.).... If you're invited in to do a clinical trial,then you should always turn up with the mind set that you may be a standby,then you won't be too disappointed if you're asked to leave the following day.(But come prepared to stay aswel.) In my opinion it's completely understandable why covance need standbys,as people don't always show up and also bloods can sometimes be out or restrictions haven't been followed etc etc.... I would encourage anyone to come and take part in a clinical trial at covance, just make sure you come with the correct mindset. I'll look forward to seeing you all again soon.
