It's Co-production Week, which gives me a chance to talk about our approach to co-creation here at Co-relate and share some great examples that we've come across through our work.

So first, what is co-production? The Social Care Institute For Excellence (SCIE) share the following definition: "A relationship where professionals and citizens share power to plan and deliver support together, recognising that both have vital contributions to make in order to improve quality of life for people and communities."

Here at Co-relate, as a team we’re always looking to upskill and expand our practice so we can deliver more for clients. I recently attended the Measuring Social Impact course at the School for Social Entrepreneurs. 

The course is designed to teach how and why to measure social impact. At Co-relate we regularly produce impact reports with the data already gathered for us and this course allows us to step up that work in order to also offer consultation on how organisations might collect better insights.
