What we do
Co-production brings people with lived experience into the heart of policy, research and decisions about the services they use.
This way of working can be fun, challenging and deliver surprising results. And when done right, it’s more cost-effective, and leads to better services, stronger outcomes and happier communities.
Through communities of practice, strategy development, training and evaluations we support organisations shift their culture and systems to embrace co-production.
We’re working to make this approach common practice across the public sector.


How we do it
- Communities of practice – join other people interested in co-production and collaboration to share learning, ideas and challenges.
- Strategy development – we’ll work with you to create a comprehensive roadmap to embed co-production across your organisation.
- Training – we can introduce the essential principles, outline effective ways of working and help you build your skills.
- Evaluations – we’ll review the work you’re doing, and offer advice on how to build on your strengths and address any gaps.
