Highlights from National Co-production Week 2018
Breaking down the barriers to co-production. Highlights. 2-6 July 2018
For the third year running, Co-production Week celebrated the benefits of co-production, shared good practice and highlighted the contribution of people who use services and carers to developing better public services.
Co-production is about working in equal partnership with people using services, carers, families and citizens. Co-production offers the chance to transform social care and health provision to a model that that offers people real choice and control.
