Co-Production Special: Panel discussion
Can we innovate co-production?
"Co-production can be a live thing that happens every day in your organisation. Every time you're engaging with a carer, there's an opportunity to learn something new."
Listen in to our Co-Production Special of the Carer Catalysts podcast - an episode recorded live with a brilliant panel of guests:
๐ Mark Dale has worked in Patient and Public Involvement for over 30 years. A person with living experience of mental and physical illness, Mark now leads on co-production at his local NHS trust and works locally and nationally on co-production, co-design, and equality and diversity.
๐ Natasha Ereira-Guyer, Founder Director of Civil Society Consulting, will share experience and understanding of social impact, community research and the needs of the sector. Committed to sustainable social development, Natasha is passionate about applying understanding of human behaviour and cognition to strengthening civil society.
๐ Charlotte Newman is CEO of Carefree - the award-winning charity using digital innovation to transform vacant accommodation into vital breaks for unpaid carers. Carefree embeds co-production at every turn, so weโre excited to hear Charlotte share more about their learnings.
๐Mobilise Co-Founder and Head of Carer Support - Suzanne Bourne. Suzanne brings her own experience caring to the panel, along with insight into experiences from the Mobilise community of tens of thousands of unpaid carers, and learnings on co-production from the 50 local authorities, NHS trusts and organisations we work with at Mobilise.
