Virtual organisational support sessions

This is the recording for the virtual co-production organisational support session held on 14 November 2025.

Valuing lived experience is at the heart of Culture of Care and we believe in embracing the full spectrum of coproduction. This is everything from all patients and carers having a voice in their care plan and peer workers on every ward through to having lived experience leadership positions at exec board level. These are all central to changing culture in inpatient care. This virtual session was an opportunity for cross-organisation project teams to reflect on this ambition.

In this session, we covered:

1. Understanding the value of coproduction and lived experience leadership
2. Exploring key concepts including power, diversity and remuneration
3. Developing a vision for what coproduction might mean across an organisation from ward to board, including corporate services
4. Exploring how to set up lived experience roles in a meaningful and sustainable way including job descriptions, recruitment, training and support structures.
