Co-Creating Healthy Change 2013-2017
Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan
People in Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan will be able to influence decisions about health and well-being services and
co-create change in health and social care public service delivery.
· People with long term conditions, disabilities and mental health needs will have increased skills to engage and be involved in planning, designing and delivering services to meet their needs. · People facing inequalities will have the confidence and clearer pathways to voice their needs and support the design of services that meet their complex needs. · Service users will have increased knowledge of commissioning and procurements strategies and be able to shape the design and delivery of services. The most vulnerable and hard to reach communities will have improved routes for communication with public sector commissioning officers. · Increased voice and influence of people, communities and third sector in health and social care services across Cardiff and Vale.
