Ruby Wax & Tessa Jowell, MP - keynote speakers at:

Hestia is excited and proud to present this engaging and collaborative one day seminar, focussing on co-production as a practical and innovative force within care and support services now. We welcome you to come and listen to experts in the field; hear from our keynote speakers; and take part in our exciting workshops.

This timely seminar will allow delegates to look at practical changes that Hestia Housing and Support and other providers have made, to put clients in control of shaping and assessing our services through co-production, as well as contribute to the growing discussion in this field.

We are all aware that care and support services are in a state of change. The dialogue about Civil Society has transformed and we need to find new solutions to the issues facing us today:

  • Self Directed Support is placing people in control of their own care, but many people are finding the reality of the transition more complex than the ideal.
  • ‘Payment by Results’ is challenging providers and commissioners to think about how to assess services meaningfully.
  • Many services are relying on less funding at a time when need is great.

In this time of change it helps to look at the factors that lead to good service design and provisionCo-production embodies the values many providers aim towards. It also can ensure that services stay relevant to people’s needs, as options about how people buy into services change.

Come to hear what the leading figures and pioneers in co-production from across a wide range of social care sectors, have to say about this approach to service design, delivery and assessment.

Delegates will be able to:

  • Learn about co-production, its benefits and potential pitfalls
  • Listen to first hand experience of clients leading in the process of changing service provision through co-production
  • Discuss the challenges and opportunities that co-production offers to providers and brokers in a personalised market
  • Hear stories from the cutting edgeof co-produced services from different sectors
  • Learn how to incorporate co-production into your service planning and assessment
  • Take part in our co-production workshops and ask questions of our client and professional panel
