Who do we work with?
• The ASP is ‘managed’ and core-finding through the MHI Team, working very closely with the GG&C ‘Mental Health Improvement Network’
• MHIN Members each belong to their own development groups in NHS (community and inpatient), Local Authority, Community, Voluntary Sector, etc
How do we decide priorities?
• The Partnership holds periodic engagement Events, open to the public and advertised through our networks.
• Stalls and presentations outline current work streams (validation)
• Discussion groups and focus groups discuss and decide upcoming / future priorities
How does it work?
• Themes are prioritised, and development groups are gathered together to look at the issues arising from that theme
• Group participants from NHS, Local Authority (SW & Edu, etc), Community & voluntary Groups, service users, carers and those with ‘lived experience’.
ASP ‘Working Group
• Meet to agree aims (awareness rising; influencing policy / practice; training / development; etc) and focus (public facing campaigns; influencing best practice; etc)
• Draw together an Action Plan – which is then prioritised and budgeted
• Actions taken forward in partnership
ASP ‘Working Group’ Co-Production
• Outputs robustly evaluated (peer –reviewed journals; external evaluations; etc)
• Training, Resources, Guidance Documents, DVDs – all copyright of ASP and open source – creative commons license for widest dissemination and use.
