Department of Health’s Co-production Guide Launched today!

This new guide on “coproduction” with older people sets out 7 principles to help local authorities and their partners, including local communities, work together and improve older people’s influence at all levels of service commissioning and delivery. It was co-produced by a small team of people working together over a period of four months to capture what ‘co-production’ means and how we’ll know it’s happening with older people who need support in their lives. The team included older people, strategic leads/senior managers in three local authorities and representatives from HSA and NDTi. Read more

A set of postcards illustrating the principles has also been produced. Please click here to see the postcards.
