About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

Our new involvement group mentoring sessions are open to anyone who has previously attended one of our co-production sessions and is interested in bringing a particular involvement theme, topic or challenge to work through with peers.

You may be coming from a strategic, operational or grassroots perspective, have a particular piece of involvement work that you are currently working on or want to explore any element or aspect of a "working with approach" that you would like insight into or support around.

Using a solution focused and strengths-based method of facilitation, our Good Practice Mentor will look to facilitate a peer to peer discussion to help you work out the best way forward and how you can tap into previous learning, practical resources and/or further support.

There will be space for a maximum of 8 people per session, and over a period of 90 minutes we will invite 4 topics for reflection and discussion. When you sign up we will be in touch to ask you about any topic or challenge that you might be interested in working on in the session, and we will confirm the topics and themes at least one week before, so you can come ready with any questions or good practice you can share.

We hope that this will create an opportunity for your co-production approach and involvement work & aspirations to evolve, develop and grow; and we can build a working group network that enables you and us to become much stronger together.
