National Care Service - governance and representation: co-design report - easy read

This easy read report sets out findings we have gathered through research and co-design that relate to governance and representation.


Co-design Sessions

We ran our co-design sessions with a group of 12 people.

We met with the same group of people so we could:

  • spend more time helping people take part
  • allow people to get to know each other. This made them feel more comfortable talking about ideas
  • allow people time to understand the topics better. This helped improve the discussions.

There were 7 sessions. Each session was 3 hours long.

Each session focused on a topic. Topics included:

  • how people would join the board and work together
  • who should be on the board
  • recruitment of board members
  • what knowledge and skills should the Chair have.
  • how to include lived experience
  • integration authority representation
  • board member training needs. 

Integration authorities are organisations that plan local social care, social work and community health services.
