Description

We will produce two webinars over the contract period. These will be
virtual sessions open to NHS providers and ICBs, aimed primarily at
board members, senior leaders, and health inequalities leads. These
events have been selected as they focus on areas of particular
interest to our members and NHSE.
• Co-production with communities as a solution to health inequalities -
Thursday 8 February 2024. They will learn about the different models
of co-production with communities and how these could be applied to
the work at trust level. They will hear about the value of working with
underserved communities to understand their experiences accessing
healthcare services and how this can contribute to the wider agenda
of reducing health inequalities; and discuss with others the enablers
and blockers that trusts face when seeking to engage with
communities in their service design and development.
• Improving access and engagement for rural and coastal
communities - Monday 25 March 2024. This webinar will explore the
health inequalities experienced by rural and coastal communities and
present examples of trustled interventions that have improved access
to services, workforce recruitment and retention, and increased
engagement with these populations. These discussions, followed by
an interactive Q&A, will allow reflective dialogue between trust
leaders to implement effective change for these communities.
We will produce a report on co-production in design of equitable
services. The report will build on the learnings from the webinar on
8th Feb, bringing together practical insights on the topic of coproduction and engagement with communities. We will share case
studies from trusts that have effectively embedded co-production
work, specifically around developing solutions to tackle health
inequalities with communities. We will also provide recommendations
for trust leaders on how to embed co-production principles in their
own health inequalities work.
An end of programme report will summarise the outputs we have
delivered via our health inequalities programme in 2023/24 (Q4),
outlining the level of impact and engagement with our members and
any insights from members about barriers or challenges they are
facing in this area.
We will also create the opportunity for participants to collaborate and
share best practice during this time by signposting to existing
resources and examples of work that trusts are doing in this space
and disseminating learning from our events.
