About this course

Thanks to funding from NHS England, we have partnered with IPS Grow to introduce this new course.

This course is designed for team leaders and service managers in NHS funded secondary mental health services. It explores co-production and the importance of collaboration with people who have lived experience (PWLE). Participants will gain practical knowledge and skills to effectively engage and work alongside PWLE, ensuring their voices are integral to service development and delivery.

The training will cover:

What is co-production?

  • Understanding the principles and significance of co-production.
  • Exploring the benefits of involving PWLE in decision-making processes.

Recruiting People with Lived Experience (PWLE)

  • Strategies for recruiting PWLE.
  • Highlighting the benefits to PWLE of becoming involved in co-production.

Best Practices in working with PWLE

  • Setting up and managing a local panel of PWLE.
  • Addressing reimbursement and payment issues.

Key co-production topics

  • Effective recruitment panels.
  • Developing and utilising case studies.
  • Creating service user-friendly materials.
  • Engaging speakers with lived experience.

Course Format: This training will be delivered through a combination of interactive workshops and practical exercises, providing participants with both theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience.

Cancellation policy

Please only apply for the cohort in which you can attend all dates. Once we have received applications we will begin offering places and ask you to confirm your attendance. 

As places for this course are limited and in high demand, we ask that you do not cancel your place without justifiable reason once you have confirmed. If you do cancel, we are unlikely to be able to offer you a place on a future cohort.

In the unlikely event that Centre for Mental Health needs to cancel a course, delegates will be offered a guaranteed place on the next available course.
