“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.” Margaret Mead
This network warmly welcomes everyone who is interested in learning new ways of working better together, testing and supporting
change and exploring the answers to those questions which matter most across our health and social care systems.
Anyone with a passion for improving health & social care can join, and membership of the Co-Creation Network is free.

Yorkshire and the Humber Leadership Academy host the Co-Creation Network; an ever-expanding constellation of Communities of Practice made up of dedicated health & social care professionals, academics and service users connecting to share their knowledge in a safe, open and supportive way. Communities of Practice (CoPs) are a great way to bring together people from different organisations and walks of life, with different skills and perspectives to approach issues together and allow thinking space.

The Network’s dedicated website is for its members to have virtual conversations, share learning and knowledge, save a library of useful, relevant documents and generate new practice that can really make a difference. It is managed by the Co-Creation Network Support Team.

Network-wide events called Basecamps are held twice a year to support members, introduce the CoPs to potential new recruits and bring in experienced Communities of Practice leaders to give their experiences.

You can explore the website for Communities of Practice already up and running, and request to join the one which matches your interests. Or, if you have an idea for a Community of Practice and would like to set one up then please get in touch with the Support Team via Lucy.Scarisbrick@hee.nhs.uk

All are welcome to join the Co-Creation Network!
