Co-Production

We share our thoughts on co-production - it's an important part of how we work, but what is it?

Co-production is a different way of thinking about how people get support. It means:

  • People work together equally and share the power to make decisions.
  • Seeing the person and not their ‘problem’
  • Avoiding words like ‘staff’ and ‘service users’
  • People being involved in how things run and not just being on the ‘receiving end’

Click here to find out more about what Co-Production means in bemix.

The blog includes examples of how we co-produce our work in bemix.  It also includes posts about why co-production is so important.
