Downloads Contact Co-production with people living with dementia Faced with two huge costs - the human cost and the budget cost - we all must find better solutions to the dementia challenge. East Dunbartonshire Council, the Joint Improvement Team and Governance International believe that co-production must be part of the answer. People living with dementia are the experts in their own lives. They can help improve public services and also help each other. This is what the co-production project PRESENT is about. Read our full PRESENT Project Report, published in 2016, to learn about results and lessons learnt. Our interim PRESENT Project Report already met a lot of interest at the Third National Co-Production Conference in Scotland in 2014. PRESENT has been recognised as one of Scotland's leading dementia projects in the shortlist of Scotland's Dementia Awards 2016. Our PRESENT case study is showcased in the Co-production Resource of the Scottish Co-Production Network, which also highlights our Co-Production Star Toolkit. Contact elke.loeffler@govint.org if you are interested in co-producing better wellbeing with people living with dementia in your local area. Strategies for overcoming obstacles to co-production Have a look at our overview of barriers to effective co-production, together with some suggested solutions. These have been identified in our extensive co-production training workshops across Scotland. We’re now undertaking more systematic research on barriers and ways of overcoming them. If you’re interested contact tony.bovaird@govint.org. Download: Co-production of health and wellbeing in Scotland A must-read book published by Governance International and the Joint Improvement Team with partners in 2013 - over 7000 copies distributed! Check out the list of chapters. This book shows how and why Scotland has become one of the leaders in public service co-production – and how the lessons learnt so far can be applied more widely. It includes national co-production initiatives which have already proven their worth, such as the Family Nurse Partnership and the Food Train, but also exciting local assets-based approaches such as the NW Kilmarnock project. The challenge of mainstreaming co-production in local government and the NHS still remains. However, Midlothian Council has already taken on the challenge to adopt a council-wide co-production strategy, supported by JIT and Governance International.

Making health and social care personal and local: Moving from mass production to co-productionA topical book published by Governance International and the Local Government Information Unit in 2012.  Governance International and the Local Government Information Unit (LGiU) have published a state-of-the-art overview of public service co-production in health and social care. The 24 chapters from major national and international practitioners and thinkers in the field set out a vision for the co-production in health and social care – what it is, why it is a necessity and how to do it. The case studies provide numerous examples of how public services can collaborate with services users and communities to improve outcomes; and discuss the challenges and opportunities that co-production presents. There is something for everyone in the book, with case studies written by national policy makers, NHS officials, local authority leaders, major service providers in public and third sectors, and expert users. Report on the Co-Production Star Training in Scotland The Joint Improvement Team (JIT) of the Scottish Government commissioned Governance International to deliver a series of training workshops from January to April 2012 to provide local councils and partners with tools to develop effective co-production approaches. We have distilled the key lessons and good co-production practices from the seven training workshops around Scotland to share our learning points more widely. From passive customers to active
