Today I was lucky enough to be a part of a new project that the Social Care Institute of Excellence (SCIE) are creating. I travelled to their office in Marylebone, London and met some other care experienced young adults. This new project was all about co-production and what it means to us. This means a lot to the VSK team, so we were all able to share ideas around this. For those who aren’t too sure what co-production is; it’s about how young people and professionals work together. We did some activities with discussions about the importance of co-production and how we could help the SCIE create something to offer Local Authorities. I really enjoyed the workshop and hope to continue working with the SCIE to improve co-production for all our young people and councils across the country.
If you are interested in getting involved with co-production and the designing of different services that impact you, then get in touch with us at vsk_participation@kent.gov.uk
